Dragon Age Inquisition Game Model Heights: Fauna and Enemies
Please note that none of these are canon. None of these numbers are reliable or meant to assert any sort of canon status. Some of these models do not appear the same size as in game.
I started pulling creature models from Inquisition for my bestiary project. Since my gaming computer died and it's hard to get a good screenshot on console, so I was hoping to do extracts.
But, I kept pulling them because I wanted to see if I could find a a rhyme or reason to ground my height estimates for the fauna of Thedas where I could. (Spoiler, I couldn't) I do however still find worth in these heights if for no other reason than for the fun of them. That said, I'm once again asking BioWare why they're changing the size of models in game so drastically with no clear system and scaling them up so drastically.
In terms of known incorrect scaling models, as in they do not reflect what is displayed in game, the following is what I know/can easily confirm: Deepstalkers, dragons*, dragonlings, fennic, giants*, great bears, large bears, lurkers, and phoenix.
* For the dragons and giants it is unclear which model's scaling is off, as in game we know that the giant is bigger than the vinsomer dragon on the Storm Coast. We also cannot confirm or deny if the dragon models are the same size across all of the different subspecies. I would say you reasonably could assume that given they all share the same skeleton, but I don't want to assume anything when it comes to scaling in Inquisition.
I would also like to note an update on some of the previously shared models from this post. I got better at blender, studied the models more to find the true shoulder, and thus these numbers have gotten more accurate. It's truly amazing what a mouse and hours of practice and study will do.
Methodology
These models are extracted from the game files using Frosty Editor in the measurement units of meters. I then brought the models into Blender. When it comes to measuring the heights, I'm measuring from the shoulder of quadrupeds, head for bipedals, and included some variations - such as additional height due to horns, crystals, ect. separately. For any creature with armor, helmets, ect, I measured from the top of their skull when possible or from an estimated top of their skull, such as with the Arcane Horror.
In terms of the numbers provided in measurement in Blender. I am taking the numbers only from the first 2 decimal places, I'm not rounding up nor am I rounding down in any area. When converting from meters to inches, I am only doing whole numbers so these will be rounded down if below .5 or up if they are .5 and above.

cars i think the foxes would’ve had then vs now
Kevin: Range Rover — Newer Range Rover (man of habit)
Andrew: Maserati — Aston Martin (expensive sports cars forever)
Aaron: Nissan Rogue — Toyota Highlander (rogue was what he could afford with a loan & help from Andrew, Toyota fit two car seats safely)
Neil: Subaru Legacy — Mazda3 2.5 Turbo (Literally just wanted smth safe and sturdy and got a good price so he bought it. Andrew loathed it bc it was ugly and had terrible acceleration/engine, later gave him 5 cars to pick from that he’d like & chose mazda)
Nicky: Jeep Liberty — Volkswagen T-Roc (fell in love with the jeep and got it cheap and drove it till it died on the side of the highway, but VW’s are more common in Germany)
Matt: Ford F-150 — Newer Ford F-150 (sold the first one for a car fit for children, then got a new truck once they were out of car seats)
Dan: Hyundai Elantra — Ford Explorer (she’d simply rock a little red car, needs an suv for all the stuff she lugs around as an exy coach & mom)
Renee: Honda Accord — Honda Civic (Stephanie’s old car = Renee’s brand loyalty)
Allison: Pink Bentley Continental — Rose Gold G-Wagon (among the 3 other cars she has)
BONUS: Wymack’s ugly ass GMC Yukon
