I guess they kept showing: “this long was just the smallest fin of it”.

Close enough... hands are shaped as if they are hugging a ball - "with the eyes THAT big". It's fairly popular Russian idiom about wild exaggeration, "с вооот такими глазами!"

A cursory image search didn't turn up any good illustrations, but I spotted one curious addition to your visual series here.
