Re: skin decoration Vs feather decoration in predatory archosaurs

Greetings,
Would these colors apply to large predatory dinosaurs? It seems to me that 
coloration in the larger forms would be to enhance camoflage and ambush 
capabilities. I've always pictured T.rex as brown and green with a blotched 
pattern because of its forest habitat. It seems to me that any really bright 
color scheme would undermine this. What do the rest of you think?
                                                    Thanks,
                                                        Brian "Buckaroobwana"
