Well, full-body soft filamentous integument (presumably what Austro, Incinerox, and the like were complaining about) on ceratosaurs is almost certainly inaccurate, but display quills/bristles like those on this wonderful Aucasaurus are perfectly possible.

I wouldnt give it quills/bristles/soft integument, more of elongated quill like scales, which i believe might've been the artists intention (correct me if im wrong).

Many lizards and other living reptiles sport similar scales (iguanids and agamids being the most notable examples) so i dont see it being impossible in some ceratosaurs either.

Ontopic, that aucasaur is AWESOME.

It also goes nicely along with All Yesterdays's hypothesis that the arms of abelisaurids were a display feature.

Is that Aucasaurus taking a dust bath or has it fell over?

Or maybe it's a butcher bird stegosaur, saving its victims bodies for later.

Winged Gallimimus and fuzzy, winged Tarbosaurus. I want to hug the Tarbo, but then again that would most likely be suicidal.
