Description
A request from a spanish fanboy on facebook: Size comparison between the type brachiosaurid and the dwarf one. For Brachiosaurus I've used Scott Hartman's skeletal as a reference (deviantart link: scotthartman.deviantart.com/ar… )Related content

Europasaurus is ONLY 5m! While Brachiosaurus can be 25m long and weigh 60t.

Yes but in the best sense of the word, since I hate any form of racism even in paleoart.
I simply bring phylogenetic bracketing in a drawing.

And another negative thing, its walk looks a little bit strange compared to the Hartman drawing

Honestly, I do not get this critique. In which sense its walk is stranger?

If you see closely Hartman's skeletal drawing, its walking as an elephant (which is correct)
But your Brachi's walk looks a bit strange to me. But the coloring and the design is beautiful

Very nice colors and anatomy!! But, sauropods had feathers too?

The answer is simple: no. Science doesn't care about your opinion, it only cares about facts. Feathers were limited to coelurosaurs, although similar structures evolved convergently in a few ornithsichians. There is no evidence of feathered animals in the Triassic period (back when the first dinosaurs - including sauropodomorphs - appeared) or Early Jurassic. The oldest known feathered animals appeared in the Bathonian of the Jurassic (~168 million years ago), while Saturnalia, a very old sauropodomorph (but not even the oldest known) lived 228 million years ago. Scientists even found fossilized scales in sauropod embryos (www.nature.com/nature/journal/… ) and even adult sauropods like Barosaurus (evanslab.files.wordpress.com/2… ), Diplodocus (upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia… ) and some African sauropod (cdn.sci-news.com/images/enlarg… ).

Pretty damn cool colors. One negative thing:
The Brachi's eye is a bit too big
