Description (Edit: dA is making this all blurry for some reason. :/ If you download it though, it looks alright. -shakes fist at dA- that is all.)

BLAR I've been listening to a lot of Nickel Creek

and so I drew something to one of my fav songs by them

woot

Sorry guys, the Calvin & Hobbes picture wasn't turning out so I trashed it. <|D



The Fox - Nickel Creek
[link]
The Fox went out on a chilly night
He prayed for the moon to give him light
For he had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He had many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o

He ran till he came to the farmers pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
He said a couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o
A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o

[BRIDGE (Mandolin)]

He grabbed the great goose by the neck
He threw a duck across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o

Well the old gray Woman jumped out of bed
Out of the window she popped her head
Cryin' John, John the great goose is gone
The Fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
John, John the great goose is gone
And the Fox is on the town-o

[BRIDGE (Fiddle)]

He ran till he came to his nice warm den
And there were the little ones 8, 9, 10
Sayin' Daddy, Daddy better go back again
It must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, Daddy go back again
For it must be a mighty fine town-o

The Fox and his Wife, without any strife
They cut up the goose with a fork and a knife
And they never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones

You get another critique from meeeeeee ;D
First of all. I probably told you that before, but. I LOVE THE WAY YOU DRAW EYES. They are so shiny and stuff.
Next - The little fox is so cute, especially the expression and the small feather in its mouth, really, really nice. The fur on its chest looks a little too...big. Like, there's too much of it or something. But other than that it's alright.
The big fox looks awesome, too, but I'd critique the nose, it looks a little too...shiny ? small ? I don't know. And the right leg looks weird, but it's fault of the perspective, I guess. The expression and the bird look great, too.
As for the background - it looks magical. The clouds, and the sun...I wish I could draw like that, man.
And the grass is just...mmmmmm.
Great job.

Beautiful. 8D Simply. Beautiful.
Some little critique, the lighting and shading on the fur makes them look a little short haired and a little shaggy. XD Your eyes are perfect as always.
