One thing that might help you understand is look and make note of the differences between hogarthes heads and vanderpoel. Vanderpoels are soft and elegant and well designed, use lots of soft edges even in the line work. Hogarths is very robotic shading and extremely structural features. Go more towards Vanderpoel if that makes sense
Fuuny that my drawings are simillar to Hogarths seeing as how I haven't studied his book apart from a couple of head lay-ins. I know exactly what you mean making that comparison, so far I've only really studied Vanderpoel's eyes, still need to study his drawings of the other features and faces as a whole which I've been meaning to do for awhile now.
Once these 2 live streaming classes end in December I was planning on just studying Jeff's, Erik's etc head and figure lay-ins/drawings for the following month, I can easily include a bunch of Vanderpoel master studies aswell, study how they interpret things and hopefully that will ingrain itself in me and improve my drawings, atleast I hope.
