Great Japanese illustrators

Let's not forget Shigeo Koike, all those great scale model boxes would not have look so good if it were not for his great artwork.

CherryBlossum,

Koike's artwork WAS the model boxes. Just search for for Hasegawa model box tops and you will see a lot of his work.


Here's an example.
First, Koike's original art work
Second, Hasegawa box top
