Nice job on the badge overall.. I really enjoy your digital work. =)
I do have one suggestion for you, coming from one artist to another, so I hope I'm not stepping out of bounds or anything. But I've noticed that your canines all have very similar facial structures. I'm having a difficult time seeing the character's "fox-ness" here because it has the same overall look to it as your other canine characters. If it weren't for other features to distinguish them from one another, like clothing, hair, coloring, etc., they look almost exactly alike.
Wolves, coyotes, and foxes look similar in a lot of ways, but if you study these animals more closely, you'll notice that they have very different head, ear, and muzzle anatomy. Wolves have larger heads and thick muzzles, foxes have larger ears and more narrower muzzles, and coyotes lie somewhere between the two. I think if you studied these differences and tried to replicate them in your art, it would make your characters stand out a lot more and prevent them from looking too "generic".
Just my two cents. Keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing more =)

it's a style thing, I guess. Foxes in particular actually have really, really tiny muzzles. And those itty bitty muzzles look terrible if you try to give them expression. Or maybe they look terrible when *I* do. I dunno. In any case, I do draw my foxes with smaller muzzles than my wolves. . . just not biologically correct. I'm either unable to personally, or it's just nigh on impossible to give 'expression' to a realistic canine face.
