Herbivore dinosaurs...

Stegosauria: dinosaurs having lived from middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous, predominantly in the Northern Hemisphere (North America, Europa, Africa, Asia but also South America).

Ankylosauria: herbivore dinosaurs found in every continent from the Early Jurassic period to the end of the Cretaceous. The first dinosaur discovered in Antartica was an ankylosauria Antarctopelta in 1986 at Ross Island.

Depiction by Mark P. Witton:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_P._Witton Diplodocus ? Late Jurassik of North America. 24 meters long, 11-14 tons weight. Both very long neck with very long tail.
Very nice ! A stripded-like-a-zebra hadrosaurs herd...
Hadrosauridae: or ornithopod duck-billed dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous (86-66 millions of years) in North America, Europa and Asia. Big size, till 12-15 meters long and 20 tons weight.
Frankly I doubt a little bit that a full adult stegosaurus like this one could be attacked by two velociraptor rather two deinonychus. Problem about coexistence, the last stegosaurids disapeared Early Cretaceous. And problem about plausibility: only two deinonychus against a full adult stegosaurus ? The prey is too big, I think...
But, otherwise, beautiful drawing !  
Futalognkosaurus. While not the largest dinosaur, still very impressive in terms of both size and build! 50 tons and 30 meters on average, with hips over 3 meters wide!

Pachycephalosaurus free climber... Why not ? But no one proof about this ability of life. But it's original.
A big ankylosauridae, but which one ? Nodosaurus, sauropelta ? Frankly I'm hesitating. Although they weren't the biggest ankylosauridae, they could reach 5-6 meters long and weigh 2 tons... Late Cretaceous.
Tarchia. Large Mongolian ankylosaurid.
8.5 meters and 6.5 tonnes scaling from Euoplocephalus. Second only to Cerdarpelta and Ankylosaurus in terms of biggest ankylosaur!  *This image is copyright of its original author
Sauroposeidon - most of you already know the name. Was so large it caused a media frenzy at the time of discovery.
Holotype is thought to be 32 meters and 60 tonnes, but this could be an underestimate as it is based on a brachiosaurid (proportionately very long necks) and there is the possibility it's a basal titanosaur instead, with proportionately shorter necks, which would get a larger animal in comparison.  *This image is copyright of its original author
