I'd suggest just badging the drag image with the number of items being dragged if it's more than what is visible (or badge it anyway, so the user gets used to the badge). The latest drag API has a way to collapse the drag with an animation to help reinforce this idea as well.

If you build a drag image from the entire selection no matter how large, the image will be often too large to be usable.
