I knew they had been in one of the many dinosaur books I owned, and that Tyrannosaurus remained my favorite depiction of the beast until I discovered GS Paul's work. I think a part of the cover image has been featured somewhere as well, possibly the same Eyewitness book?<br /><br />It's really nice to get to see that Deinonychus scene in its entirety at last. I can't remember if I've seen any other depictions of intraspecific fighting among Deinonychuses, even though it is something suggested by fossils.Mette Aumalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10368084269803293021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-33001100637467670682012-09-18T02:16:40.332-04:002012-09-18T02:16:40.332-04:00I too remember some of these photos from "Eye...I too remember some of these photos from "Eyewitness Dinosaur". However, I also remember them from an issue of "Ranger Rick". Specifically, I remember the Coelurus & Archaeopteryx photos (which are my favorites in terms of realism/dynamism). I also remember a photo of 2 Tyrannosaurs eating a Triceratops. IIRC, the article was a story about a kid watching a late night dino doc, falling asleep, & then dreaming that he was on a dino safari.

Loved the pics, but not the text, esp regarding <i>T. rex</i> (this was when I started to think that Mr Dixon wasn't as on-the-ball as I had assumed; led me to see both <i>After Man</i> and <i>The New Dinosaurs</i> in a new light.<br /><br />The cover is fantastic, really eye-catching and what drew me to the book in the first place, but my fave is the <i>Saltopus</i>. The <i>Pterodactylus</i> is lovely, too.<br /><br />@Craig - Regarding ceratopsians, only <i>Triceratops</i>, and no surprise that you didn't recall it as the pic is dull and completely unmemorable.Mark Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05197384873600545231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-8137348280800355032012-09-17T19:58:55.404-04:002012-09-17T19:58:55.404-04:00I remember seeing some of these in the Eyewitness ...I remember seeing some of these in the <i>Eyewitness Dinosaur</i> book too, especially that a classmate used the <i>Tyrannosaurus</i> image to "prove" that that taxon could swim (evidently not realizing that the animal is not actually <i>in</i> the water, and that some of those birds would be flying below the waterline in that case).Albertonykushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00345306530772709064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-51515109204385805052012-09-17T19:53:46.036-04:002012-09-17T19:53:46.036-04:00Great review!

I <i>was</i> going to remark that it was odd that these illustrations aren't better known through re-use, but then I saw the <i>Archaeopteryx</i> and <i>Diplodocus</i> and definitely remember haveing seen those before.<br /><br />By the way, I meant to mention it before, but I really enjoy the artistic weight you've been giving to your descriptions of these artworks in your recent posts. Your paragraphs on the Archie and <i>Saltopus</i> are especially lovely. Nateehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869685234493116483noreply@blogger.com
