Add a one-line explanation of what this file represents
This dinosaur restoration is inaccurate, or its accuracy is disputed.

Reason: Eyes are too large, scaly, and lacks feathers.

You may ask further questions about the accuracy of this image at the image review page of WikiProject Dinosaurs on the English Wikipedia. Note that this image may be appropriate to illustrate obsolete paleontological views.

Summary edit

Compsognathus head model, Oxford Museum. Note: absolutely all colored paleoart works can be disputed, because colors are actually unknown (except in very rare cases). Objections concerning the presence of feathers and the pronation of the limbs are only valid if the fossils offer certainty that the paleoartist would have ignored. This certainty is lacking for Compsognathus. From English Wikipedia:
