Changing the scale of a texture

[DrEinsteinium]

Hey guys, I have a ResourceLocation of the player's skin, which as we all know is devised into different sections. The sections I am focusing on right now are the player's head, which are 8x8 squares  depicting each side of the head. I want to be able to render these squares into a GUI, but 8x8 is way too small for my needs. So how would I scale up the size of the texture without losing any resolution?

 

Here is what I have right now.

        //this.size = 8
        GL11.glColor4f(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);
        Minecraft.getMinecraft().getTextureManager().bindTexture(this.playerskin);      
        // Draw the background layer, aka the player's face.
        this.drawTexturedModalRect(this.posX, this.posY, 8, 8, this.size, this.size);
        // Draw the foreground layer, aka the player's hat or mask. 
        this.drawTexturedModalRect(this.posX, this.posY, 40, 8, this.size, this.size);

 

I don't -think- this works, as when you change size to a different number it wont resize the texture but instead resize the "field of vision" (or whatever you prefer to call it) of the renderer.

 

Thanks in advance

GL11.glScalef(...);

FFS. I looked in GL11 for that but for some stupid reason I didn't see it. Thanks for assisting my blind eyes.
