Description Paleo Profile: Pachyrhinosaurus lakustai. Many partial fossils of this thick nosed lizard have been found and most of them sport large bony bosses atop their skulls. Many representations show this animal with a large arrangement of horns and other decorative ornaments sprouting from the bony masses. In this representation I have added a cluster of bone on the forefront of the frill nearest the eyes, allowing this representation to lock skulls with another of its kind to shove back and forth without mortally wounding its opponent. A viewer request who loves the Pachyrhinosaur! Enjoy!

Could I maybe use this lineart and color it? With full credit to you of course.

this would make a cool sculpt - or even a pair dueling.  Awesome

Thank you! I was wanting to flip the image and potentially make a crest with two of them going head on. I'm glad you enjoy the piece. If you know of anyone who can sculpt it let me know!

I'll tell you I am tempted - never did a sculpt before but it's so inspiring

Go for it! I would like to see what inspired piece you come up with! It never hurts to try something new.

A nice drawing again, although P. canadensis did not show the central horn behind the eyes (that was only present in P. lakustai and P. peretorum). They also did not have the forward-facing horns on the frill.

Thank you for catching the misrepresentation. I have made the changes to show the right animal.
