Seems to me you've already found the answer to your question: the
JCheckbox icon doesn't change size because, drumroll... it's an icon.

I believe there should be a way for you to change the icon used by the
JCheckbox component without any UI-specific code, probably via some
Swing property. I'd look into that if I were you.
