Keep going and enjoy the process more so than the final product. Have fun. Wick is cool!

Pretty well made for a month.
But you ask for feedback.

The contrast between light and dark shades is a bit low for me.
Would work on this.

The pencil strokes of the area shading appear a little to chaotic to me.
They could be drawn with a more orderly and structured approach.

Yes, these are good drawings.

That's not bad. One thing that helped me improve my faces was learning the loomis method of drawing heads. There's a bunch of tutorials on it. It's important to think of art as 3D objects.

How long were you "unseriously" drawing before a month ago. These are not the drawings of a beginner. They are very good, missing only a few professional tweaks.

i agree with all the comments above ... great for only a month (?) ... the contrasts mentioned would certainly bring areas to life - make it really dark where its dark and have a mid grey (which they are all at present) and then the lightest lights.

these are copied out of books ? try life drawing - doesnt have to be a life model - go to a coffee shop and scribble away ... use the television (news) and draw ... this requires quick moves and really looking. my favourite type of drawing is blind contour drawing .... you have the perfect model in yourself - draw your mirror reflection.

you are obviously ready to take your work to another level - really good drawing skills.

They are indeed a good progression. My comments are more "compositional": it is not just about getting proportions, in my most humble opinion, it is more important that it "feels right", this depends on the gesture, position and, for portraits, to a very large extent, the direction of the eyes.

For instance, in the upper part of the second picture, the guy with the knife is looking in a different direction than the knife points to. This somehow calls me unnatural, the most natural thing is that if one is going to do something, the eyes go in the direction of the action, one wants to make sure whatever one does is done well, not somewhere else.

Say, when you draw, your eyes focus on the charcoal/pencil, not somewhere else. That's not always true. For example, magicians or a good fighter will looks somewhere else to distract your attention from what they really want to do, but that requires training and not everybody is able to do it (that's why "magic" works).

Shortly put I think you have reached the point where keen observation of the world around you will yield bigger improvements than technique.
