Wow, awesome collection of beasts.
:icondewlap:
Thank you, I'm glad you like it, it looks like a simple sketch but it took me a long time to gather enough materials (articles, pictures and photos of the skeletons to work out their proportions...etc) to draw it (the sketch).
:icondarkbinder:
I made one quite similar to this but with diferent species although Deinotherium was on it and also Moeritherium ,good job =D.

I detect Mauricio Anton's influence in Deinotherium, Gomphotherium and Mammut borsoni, am I right?
Good job, as usual.
:icondewlap:
I would say so too but not just in Deinotherium, Gomphotherium and Mammut borsoni (Well...Almost everything in this picture). His style is so cool... :-) I've try to restore them using Mauricio's style.

Welcome =D.

Cool!, I think Mammuthus sungari should be there.

Great picture!!

I love it! Otherwise the proportions aren´t very realistic.

I think that only Indricotherium, mammut borsoni and Moeritherium are in accurate scale.

Deinotherium giganeteum was much larger, up to nearly 4.5 meters at the shoulders.

Loxodonta Africana isn´t that big!! The average of this species is 3.2 meters with the largest males reaching 3.5 m at the sohulders. Only the world record african elephant is that big.

M.trogontherii could be even quite larger, with a height of more than 4.5 meters at the shoulders.

In this one I´m no t very sure but I think that Gomphotherium is less tha 2.5 meters at the shoulders.

Regards
