Is it possible to make characters bigger/smaller?

Hello everyone. Is it possible through coding and such to make characters bigger/smaller? For instance could my character be made the same size as the npc he is standing next to in the screenshot below?

My reasoning is, that all of the Men of the Empire (playable ones) are midgets, and it would be nice to be able to look like a champion among them so to speak. In Warhammer Fantasy Battles novels there are depictions of mighty 6'6 and 7' tall Warrior Priests like Jacob Wolff and Luthor Huss, and other heroes of the Empire are as impressive or more-so, like Ludwig Schwartzhelm, Kurt Helborg and Volkmar the Grim.

If you look at the npc in the picture he is a tall and strong looking man, but he does not have the superhuman physiology of a Warrior of Chaos or Chaos Knight, so I think it wouldn't be lore breaking to allow Men of the Empire to be somewhat taller and beefier if they so choose.

Anyway that is if it is even possible for the developers of this place to do.

I'm going to give you a 99.9% on a yes, it is an option to scale the size of anything in the game. But I'm unsure if the devs would want this. It would probably be a day or two's work to add a slider and scale-up your character. It's not a bad idea, though, and makes sense that a warrior priest might be a bit more, manly, so to speak.

E'gads, if this feature could be added, then you would have my eternal loyalty and gratitude. I would be glued to this place and never log out probably.

not in theory but i'd prefer a scale over time so that lower player will be smaller than you. realy like some linked to renow gain ( at infinite) so that in a small % you can still grow ( just a stupid % like 1% every 1.000.000 renow but it will be cool) mabe with a cap at some point

This would be very cool. especially for orcs, since in the lore they grow larger the more powerful and battle hardened they become.
