Xinghesaurus size

Well, in my last post, based on the only existing photographs of the Xinghesaurus mount, it appears to be a sauropod roughly ~2.6-2.7 meters at the hips. But what about the total size?

Total size is a bit trickier, since the only side-view image of the Xinghesaurus mount has much of it obscured by other objects. But I did the best I could, using parts from the other photographs, and taking some parts of other nemegtosaurs, to fill in the obscured and blurry areas. Cross-scaling was at the best I could do, utilizing the landmarks I could actually make out.

I also reposed the mount's spinal column to something more titanosaurian, rather than diplodocoidean.

Looks more like a titanosaur now. Not a diplodocoid wannabe!

Torso length, defined as dorsal+ilium length here, is around ~3.3-3.4 meters.

Axial length ends up at ~14.86-15.38 meters.

Xinghesaurus ends up at Camarasaurus tier in length, but is much less bulky, with more of it's length being composed of it's long neck and tail.

But how about mass? Well, that's a bit more difficult. But this should give you an idea:

A bit larger than a male African forest elephant in terms of torso size, but much larger in total dimensions.

If I have to guess, probably around ~3-3.5 tonnes.
