www.hannants.co.uk - its an online shop and has box art for most items they sell. As for the artists, i have no idea, try contacting the manufacturers. It will probably say somewhere on the box lid, probably on the actual painting

There is a really good artist that does box art of WW2 planes for Dragon model kits, Ive been trying to track down who he is, if anyone can find out Id appreciate it. He did one of a He-219 Uhu nightfighter shooting down a Lancaster which I particularly like, also one of a Fw-190 doing a dive attack over D-day beaches.

Who used to do the 1970's and 1980's box art for Matchbox aircraft? They were great, often better than the kit themselves.

I know that at one stage some of the same artworks were also released as jigsaw puzzles by lesney, I have a few.
