Well thanks for letting me give you a strong critique here, like I said before, I really enjoy your works and this is one of the pics that I had to take a more detailed look into this piece, and here's the review:
Vision) The Fox and the Crow is a story Ive heard of thanks to our friend Aesop and his fables but it's been ages since I heard of it and yet when I see this pic, I am drawn back to the times in school where I was reading the fables.
Originality) Not too many people draw or animate the scenes from the fables without putting their own spin on things but you seem to take the fable and illustrate it nicely! Using both your talent and your interpetation of the fable, you illustrate a scene that even Aesop himself will be pretty impressed at.
Technique) Like I said the first time I saw this, I love the use of this kind of angle, to me it feels like you put a camera a little higher then where the crow is perched on and you're looking down on the ground where the fox seems to be in the middle of conversing with the crow in relinquishing that slice of cheese it's holding in it's beak. Even though this is only a drawing, I do feel a sense of vertigo because of how high up the tree is.
Overall Impact) Im giving it 4.5 out of 5 stars. You really got a good grasp on this story and I really enjoy this pic and I honestly feel like this could be in a scene in a new book of Aesop fables with you being the lead artist.
You did an excellent job again KJ, Im very happy to watch you and your talent evolving, one picture at a time!

Heh, heh... pretty cool illustration there!
Don't you be fooled, Mr Crow, that fox is a shameless flatterer!

I remember a song that went with this tale. But I don't remember all the lyrics.
