Quote - To some extent it depends what you mean by "realistic". Ideas about what T-rex would have looked like have changed a lot in the last few years, from the upright shape, to the "giant turkey" look.
I've even seen serious suggestions that it would have had feathers!
Which look did you have in mind?
Still some debate about the feathers, since no fossil feathers were ever found with T.Rex remains. The giant turkey is quite apt, though, since it's more or less accepted that dinosaurs didn't die out but instead became smaller creatures to cope wth the problem of a reduced food supply then grew feathers to help with insulation. Some "experts" even believe the Tyrant King, the lord of all predators eventually became...
The chicken.
