Just in case some people don't know... Joe Murray also made the illustrations for a few children's books. Seeing his other artwork is just interesting because... it's a bit different from his RML and CL stuff. Then again RML and CL are also drawn by other people working with him or something. I do see a similarity with the colors he chooses in all of his artwork in a way. (correct me if I'm wrong ^^ Here are some pictures of the books he made illustrations for! (snagged from Amazon.com ^^ Who Asked the Moon to Dinner?[/b] Hugville[/b] The Enormous Mister Schmupsle: An ABC Adventure[/b] Also Amazon.com lets you have a preview at one of the books. -> linkIf I happen to take a trip to my local library and spot them, I'll definitely check them out. I kind of did some research on children's storybook illustration because my school offers it as a course/studio elective in the 3rd or 4th year. The career of children's books illustration... Something that has been in my head for awhile but I heard from professors and such that it's a bit competitive. I'll just stick with Graphic Design. XP Main point of this thread? Just take look at his other artwork as well! Don't just know him as someone who creates cartoons. ^__^ Ehhhh yeah whatever maybe you don't care. But I hope I'm not the only one I know who likes Joe Murray's other stuff. Hope this enlightened you more about Joe Murray and his other works. Also feel free to add any other stuff that Joe Murray drew/made or comment about the topic.

Well, I have not pretty much seen any of his books in a book store. But then, I don't check in the children's section. Anyway, pretty much, many of us knew about them. And yeah, the drawings seem more different than his RML artowrk or CL.
His other artwork can be the advertisments he has done. I have not seen one (or paid attention to see one) but I wonder if they differ from his other various artwork.
