Artist's Comments
Well... do you want one?
For cookies go here => [link] (the creature is a mix between jackal and swan. Don't ask. This is the result of too little sleep and too much cookie-talk) (as always: Advanced crit hightly appreciated. Just a draft though. ^^ ) Comments Love the jackal swan creature. You should work more with it.

 I think too little sleep and too much cookie-talk are a good combo  A jackal and a swan? What an original idea! 8D I love the expression on his face, and how you've designed him! I'm amazed the girl isn't running away XD But who could resist a cookie?
Oh and his glasses = epic win.  I won't ask about the jackal-swan epicness of the creature...but what's up with the glasses? XD They're awesome too, no worries there.
-- Current story status: 400+ pages done. Still working. I am not looking forward to proofreading it. *shifty eyes*  The design is FANTASTIC!! I love it!!! O.O
 if you have no sleep and cookie talk can always end up with odd results XD
Love the picture by the way! -- Be Yourself, Everyone else is Taken.  Well definitively wolves/dogs dont usually have wings, so the sight of a winged jackal really draws the eye. That feature drew my eye immediately. The wide eyed girl really appears childlike, innocent, and it the title gives reminiscence to a children moral story. Like not to give into temptation. You really could develop it more with a a background rich with symbolism and color. That being said you have set the frame for some rich work to be done! Keep up the good work!
 Hmm, I think the price of that Cookie will be a bit more than the young one realizes they are about to pay.
This is a fantastic work. Your winged Jackal is a masterpiece of imagination and blends the two (he and the swan) beautifully. There is a huge potential for both the characters. -- Cleverly disquised as a responsible adult. ----------------------------------- The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of the act.  ide totaly take a cookie from a big monster with sharp teeth thats smiling like that! ;>_>
-- Signature? I cant sign with a keybord  Not getting enough views? --> Awesome Club [link] Icon by =danji-isthmus  Ugh, I owe one person a cookie.

Critiques
There are a few technical issues I see with him, like the tip of his tail. I love the curl of it, but it seems off as it bends behind itself, perhaps a more graceful curve would make it look more believable.
Also, I see a dew claw on his right hind leg but not so much on the left, I'm not sure if that's the implied line of one or a shadow.
Last thing, (I promise!) his right ear looks slightly misplaced,I like the curve of it, but I think from that angle you'd see the inside of it a bit.
That's it, I really hope you don't mind the critique, again, I love this character I hope you do more with him!
I can't see anything expressly wrong with the anatomy of the creature, but as I'm not an expert on anthro Jackal-Swan (Swackal?), take that with a grain of salt.
The child seems a little simplistic in comparison to the Swackal (totally using that word), and there's a large gap between the amount of detail given to him as opposed to her, but that might have been on purpose. Not to mention she is rather small, so I can only imagine that she might be hard to detail without crowding her and overloading her.
I don't know. I'm not very good at being a critic.
