Can a short guy have a good body?

I would like a body like this

I'm only like 5'7 though, could I ever look like that or will I just end up looking bulky? Would it look as good scaled down to my height, or would I just look skinny?

I think its possible, my preference is skinnier guys but if that's what you want to go for. I know someone who is shorter than you with a six pack so it can happen

Yea but do keep in mind that he is a guy.
But 5'7 I really wouldn't consider it as small, maybe just average.
I'm not very big either, 5'10. Or 5'11 in shoes. xO
Anything above 6ft is considered tall tbh.

It looks attractive to some girls, but to some height matters more. And who said short guys can't have bodies like this? ~.~ It's not gonna look any bulkier than it would have on someone taller, provided proportions were the same.

You are of different gender, comparison just doesn't work in this case. It's like a guy telling a girl ''you think, your chest is small, look at mine!''...

5'7? When I saw "short guy", I thought you were talking about someone who was 5'4.

That being said, I know a very well built 5'4 guy. It's just beautiful.
the shorter the easier you dumb fool
Thanks everyone, I used short since it's below the average of 5'9 (?)

That Mark Wahlberg pic is good, I thought I may either look too skinny (in scale) or too bulky.
How you body looks is determined by your training and diet, then you just have to wait and see if you've been blessed with aesthetic insertions/genetics.
