where can i find super high quality, anatomically accurate 3D models of dinosaur skeletons?

I want some models for an art project, but the only ones I can find are cartoonish or just plain inaccurate.

with the rise of rapid prototyping, I have to imaging that models have been made to replace the costly shipping of scientific replicas between colleges/institutes.

is there a repository out there someplace?

free is good, but Id also be willing to pay.

I am specifically looking for a trex but really, any i could get my hands on would be awesome.

Not free and also out of stock, is this model roughly what you're looking for? It's pretty large as well.

Just to clarify, are you talking about physical models or files for a 3d application? Your reference to rapid prototyping makes me think the later.

cad block exchange network? also whenever i do a search for hi resolution textures the search results also throw up community forums full of 3D modellers with pretty detailed models that they can sell you. if all else fails why don't you 3D scan an existing physical model?
