Nice use of color to shade the face of the first piece. Getting those subtle tones down is a challenge.

The second piece looks very ackward... are we looking at the back of a person?

Your third piece has good shading and colors, but a little confusing with the shape.

yeah, great use of colours there..

the composition on the second piece could be a bit better, though,
because like sledge monkey said it's kind of confusing... but I see
it now, now that you guys pointed out that it's his back.

In my opinion, a nice strong V shape makes the back
view more recognizable... You know, lats.

looking good, though.
