Feathered versions of existing species

Frontier does such a great job with feathered skins, I would like to see feathered versions of species that we know were feathered, or which were very likely to have been feathered. Sort of like how Tyrannosaurus got a 65ma skin with some feathering. It would be a lot of work, but this would be such a great addition to the game, I would definitely pay money for it. Who else would like to see this?

The species would be:
  • Atrociraptor
  • Archaeornithomimus
  • Barbaridactylus
  • Coelophysis
  • Compsognathus
  • Deinonychus
  • Dsungaripterus
  • Gallimimus
  • Geosternbergia
  • Maaradactylus
  • Proceratosaurus
  • Pteranodon
  • Struthiomimus
  • Tapejara
  • Troodon
  • Tropeognathus
  • Velociraptor
 
You forgot Cearadactylus. Albertosaurus, Qianzhousaurus, and Australovenator could probably also be feathered as well since the Dominion Prologue seems to suggest that even large tyrannosaurs in the Jurassic Park universe would've been feathered. Megaraptorans like Australovenator remain taxonomically uncertain, but most recent studies suggest that they're tyrannosaurs or at least coelurosaurs so feathers would also make sense on them.

Qianzhousaurus is a maybe. I don't think Albertasaurus was feathered (it's also unlikely Tyrannosaurus was feathered). Australovenator is another maybe. I did forget Cearadactylus though.
 
If they're gonna add feathers, I'd hope they push for greater realism with more accurate models as well--that is to say, an actual, accurately scaled Velociraptor, and so on...
I think we can say with certainty that this is not going to happen. The dinosaurs are going to be faithful to the Jurassic franchise. But they could still give feathered versions of a JP-style Velociraptor and have it be faithful to the franchise.
 
It would be great to have new feathered skins for existing species in the game. A model like Albertasaurus would look so much better I think.
