Very nice job, you did on this. I love how the Geisha girl is in scale with the gigantic Shantungosaurus. My favourite hadrosaur of all time, it is.

I've been writing afew chapters of a fiction that features domesticated dinosaurs. It's on my journal if you're interested. I had shantungosaurs in it also, but they were being herded for meat and hide, aswell as riding. The main character caught a ride home with the herders, astride one of the herd's large males.
One problem that gets me with riding hadrosaurs is that they have high vertebral spines, so sitting on it bareback would be awkward. Nevertheless, such a tall back would be ideal to attach a saddle or caravan to.
If you want something bipedal with broader hips that you could ride, selectively breeding pachycephalosaurus would probably work.

More pictures are coming, some of dinosaurs in war situations and some of basic domestication.

In my mind the geishas rode sideways on the part between the neck and the back for short periods of time. hadrosaurs probably would have been used for transport and meat along with some species of ceratopcians, but im making it so that only a few ceratopcians like styracasaurus's etc were domesticated as most have the short tempers like modern day rhinos.
