Roy Cross began work as an illustrator in Fairey Aviation during World War II. Over the next thirty years, he progressed from line illustration, via colour artwork, to top-class advertising art for the aircraft industry and other companies, including "Airfix", for whom he produced many hundreds of artworks to adorn model kit boxes over a ten-year period. His illustrations for "Airfix" included superb depictions of aircraft, cars, ships, spacecraft, armoured vehicles and dioramas. Though Roy Cross is perhaps most famous for his "Airfix" box art, his work has encompassed book and magazine illustrations, including highly detailed cutaways and other technical drawings. In more recent years, Roy has concentrated on the production of his magnificent maritime paintings.
