Yeah, we're so used to seeing extinct animals reconstructed from a lateral point of view that some of them can be hard to recognize from other perspectives. :P

Its rare to see paleoart depict what goes on behind a ceratopsian frill.

What species is it?

And that Protoceratops, with such a light build, it looks more like a small ornithopod with a ceratopsian head. Usually their depictions much bulkier looking.

Truth be told, Protoceratops was indeed a very lightweight animal. Its body was compact and everything, but compared to other ceratopsians, it was rather stilt legged.

And when viewed from above, it was very VERY narrow.

I still find its short torso and stupidly long hind legs to be the weirdest bit. There's almost zero room for any internal organs in front of its legs.

Do we have any evidence that Protoceratops have double short nasal horn? I don't think I have seen any skulls with horns like that but it's becoming more popular depiction. First in Dinosaur Revolution and now this...

That's because those are are Protoceratops hellenikorhinus, not P. andrewsi

From what I can tell those are by Zhao Chuang, who you may recognise from his Zhenyuanlong, Qianzhousaurus and Ikrandraco
