Nice job I like that sauropod of the EK world.

Thank you! Euhelopus is among the coolest looking early Cretaceous sauropods.

Euhelopus material has been founbd in the Yixian formation, hasn't it? Or at least partially referrable?

Well, I didn't know anything about this, but after quick google search it seems that there are some basal titanosauriform's teeth from the Yixian formation which could be refered to cf. Euhelopus sp. That's all I found. [link] and [link] . Though I don't know if bunch of teeth are really that much diagnostic on genus level.

Gorgeous work! Euhelopus is one of my favorite sauropods, and the colors are pretty cool too (I'd probably go with more of a gray camo pattern for Euhelopus, but this scheme is amazing!)
The only suggestion I'd make is with the feet, they are a bit long. The metatarsals of sauropods are neither long nor splayed flat. Other than that, it's perfect; I prefer Greg Paul's more vertical necked version, but the 45 degree neck still looks very believable the way you painted it.

Thank you very much! I always appreciate your comments and constructive criticism, especially when I know how good you're at drawing sauropods. BTW, I used Paul's skeletal as reference. Seeing my comments on your work you may figure out why I drew the neck in that way.

Apparently you are working a lot with sauropods. Some special project?

This is really amazing! Especially with the species you are portraying here. Congratulations. And good luck!

Beautiful. By the way, that's the neck posture that seems more natural to me.

Interesting Color Scheme. Makes me think of giraffes.

Yeah, it does look a little bit like giraffa.

Rather fitting for a dinsoaur that is the analog of a Girafe, isn't it?

Yes, it looks very good and fits well for an illustration but in my opinion it's higly unlikely any dinosaur to have had such coloration.

very good, though the neck looks a tad too long.

Thanks!
Well, the animal had pretty long neck actually. Atleast that's the impression I got from the reference that I used. Anyway, I often draw sauropod's necks longer than there were, so there is big chance for you to be rigth about this.
