Description
Part of a collab with .I am fully convinced this is the biggest non-piscivore theropod.
Btw, here you can hear me nerdgasm about this fact:

Yep the skull is a bit big. But it ain't 14 meters it's 13.5

better, but still too long.

Nice!
However...
"I am fully convinced this is the biggest non-piscivore theropod."
Not when Mapusaurus, Tyrannosaurus, and Giganotosaurus are bigger than it.

I think Tyrannosaurus is smaller O.o

Not when Carcharodontosaurus is the same size as Acrocanthosaurus, a theropod knownΒ to be smaller than T.rex.

Nop.

Also:
I used the estimated length of the specimen ( 13,5m ) which I then divided through the length of the drawing ( 25cm ) to get the scale for a meter (1.85 cm rounded to the tenth of a milimeter). I then multiplied this times 1.8 to get the scale of a human, which are 3.33cm.

here, only 12m long.
The skull on your drawing is longer than the human (1.85cm you said?), so I estimate your skull at nearly 2 meters, which is waaay to big for C.saharicus.

Yep. The skull is a bit big. That's true. But the rest is good

How about 's skeletal? It's much much smaller.
I'd take his high-quality skeletals over some random internet sizechart from a few years old showing a 5m tall SpinosaurusΒ Β

It's one against the whole Google gallery, including the first skeletal from the paper

Not saying 13.5m is impossible, but it most definitely is not the most parsimonous.
And I have Randomdinos' estimate to back it up: 11.8m and 6330 kg.
2 reliable scalers vs google images

Quoting Franoys:
I have no clue on how an estimation of 13,5 meters is possible for SGM din 1, by simple skull scaling from Giganotosaurus and Tyrannotitan such a size is not possible, specially when your Giga holotype skull is the exact same size or bigger than the skull size of SGM din 1.
Also if it was 13,5 meters, or 13,4 as I got measuring using the preserved portion of the skull as scale, it should be longer than the Giganotosaurus holotype, which is between 0.7-0.9 meters shorter than that apparently. Furthermore such a big SGM din 1 is even bigger than the biggest length that has been ever suggested for it in the scientific literature, which is 12,8 meters long in Brussate and Sereno 2007. It also appears that you didn't take into account the documented remains of IPHG 1912 into account as described per Stromer in 1931
Β It is completely impossible to get a estimation of 13,5 meters scaling from anything unless you do the post cranial material in a arbitrary manner.Β
I'm aware that different individuals might have different proportions, but I'm sure Carcharodontosaurus neotype would, almost certainly, be closer in proportions to another specimen of it's species (which was classified as adult by Stromer despite it being smaller) than a completely speculative restoration of it.

Can you critique my Ostafrikasaurus

Argument of the many.
Franoys has brought up much better points.
Besides, look up Velociraptor. Google images will tell you it's a pronated-handes, scaly 20ft monster. Science says otherwise.

Are you kidding me? That size chart (yeah, the one you linked twice) is anything BUT trustworthy. The other one isn't too great, either.
