Windcatcher has come very close to changing models in the s3d files. Only him can tell for sure how far he's succeeded, but i remember he could force load models from any zone to any custom zone.
As for changing player character models (adding requires hacking .exe afaik), it means changing in the player model s3d file (i.e. making a new one and substitute), then sharing that s3d file with all players. ZoneProxy would help, but would not be enough as it is now.
Changing char models is an interesting idea, but involves much knowledge of the s3d files, much work to build new ones, and very much set mind to go through all unexpected technical difficulties (read : SOE tweaks in client code ruining part of the project everytime a new step is made)
You may want to give a try anyway. Good luck.
