Hard to say what is "natural" or not... genetically, dinosaurs have more in common with birds than lizards, and birds are notoriously colorful. Also, with most of the ceratopsians, the patterns are good camouflage. Large animals today use colorful camouflage. Zebras. Big cats. Also, There was recently a dinosaur find that included skin, not just imprints. Within the skin was mummified pigment cells that have maintained their color structure, showing the dinosaur was a rust color (exact color unknown) on top and a white or cream color below. Their pigment cells are very similar to those found in bird feathers. So it's really hard to say "This is unnatural".

It's also a huge relief to finally have something that's not a bland rhinoceros grey. You are right 100% about one thing... these are incredibly cool! I'm glad I've been a backer of both kickstarter campaigns.
