Yea thanks anyway Stwert, thanks for trying. The image wasnt clear but it was in answer to what Chirone had suggested previously.

My rig is the same size as my model (or did you mean when you encountered the problem?) It was just an example of how mine is messing up.

Thanks a lot guys for your efforts, i will attempt to play around with it. As ive said where im new to all of this it is a job sometimes to know where to start even 'playing around' with things. Ill look into the freezing transformations like you suggested. If you find a solution it would be appreciated,

The referencing thing is just what i wanted though, worse comes to worst ill just go back a few stages with the character that i want to scale and tweak it earlier.

Thanks again!
