You can find prints of James Gurney's work in the Store on the official Dinotopia site: www.dinotopia.com/dinotopia-store.htmlHe can even sign them for you. Too bad, they only ship to the US, not international I would love to have a print of his painting "Skybax Rider".

I think I saw a bunch of Knight's work on eBay recently. Henderson actually sells his own posters on eBay as well - I forgot his username, but they're easy enough to find if you look for his Postosuchus poster, etc.

I did a quick search this morning for dinosaur poster, print, ect.. and didn't turn up much on eBay... but I'll try again.. I'm looking for a certain feeling in a piece...some of these guys used to evoke it in me..just have to find the right one.
I'll have a look at Gurney's site...I have a Dinos of the World postcard he signed to me years ago..thanking me for my love of his work with a mini Diplo he sketched on it....lol ...what dino fan wouldn't love his art ? Of course it's framed... heh

Personally, I love Henderson's. It feels so natural, the way he frames natural prehistoric scenes in vast environments. They feel like photographs, snapshots in time. Like looking at a Postosuchus in a Triassic forest, rather than simply a Postosuchus with some trees in the background.
Do you remember the one you were looking for?

I can't remember exactly..I'm hoping some will just leap out at me right now... I did find a few of Henderson's I like...Gurney has pieces I want as well but the size is a problem...I was looking for something like 25 x 38" or close. That piece of Gurney's..with the two Tyrannosaurs drinking... would be great in that size but it just isn't available.... I also like the Henderson one of the Tarbo chasing the Saurolophus into the water and the lone Alberto in the forest...but they are only around 12x17 or so.

Thanks for the links !
I noticed that about Paul's zazzle store... can't figure why...they would def be the best selling item there I bet.
Found some of the ones I liked in the past in a book I have...looks like they were done by Brian Franczack ... but it appears he has fallen off the face of the earth in recent years...I can't find a thing on him or by him that's recent.
Wonder if, since Henderson makes his posters and prints he could do a custom aka larger one ?

Totally agree...Henderson is one of my favorite paleoartists ever,his paintings look so life-like...s you said,they look like "snapshots" from the past
