thanx for replying,Idealy I'd like to get to a standard where I'm able to create dinosaur illustrations for dinosaur books. Do you have any advice on how I can improve my illustrations?

Well, I'm no professional, but one tip is to base the dinosaurs on museum skeletons where possible.  I usually collect as many pictures as I can before drawing!  Looking around on dA is great too, there are many knowledgable people here who write about reconstructing dinosaurs.  I recommend reading Scott Hartman's blog too [link]
Art wise, just keep up the practise (something I don't do enough of, haha)

No prob. Nope, although I haven't really tried. I paint mostly for my own enjoyment.
