Hm, interesting.
If you want critique, I'd say for starters that I would have used colored pencil on this. Crayon gives you the exact same texture on everything, making the picture look flat.
Also, if this guy is some kind of flying squirrel, his flaps of skin should connect his wrists to his ankles- otherwise they aren't big enough and he wouldn't be able to fly.
The legs, too- if the character is in a 3/4 view like this, the legs shouldn't be in a profile view. Try drawing overlapping ovals for the legs and feet to give them a more believable, foreshortened look.
I also noticed that the shadow on his right leg is on the wrong side, based on the location of the light source. The torso could use some shading, too, as well as the right armpit.
If you really want to make him look like he's flying very high, I'd suggest altering the background so the mountains and clouds are situated on a convex horizon line just crossing behind his shin (this view would make the ground visible, as well). I'd lower the sun, too, and feature it as a small, bright circle completely inside the frame.
Those are my comments for now. Good luck with your contest!!
