for your heads and skulls you make a pretty consistent mistake of undershooting the cranial mass (back of the skull)

In the painted one and profile view, its too short theres just more mass in the back of the skull
on head #3 you get it the closest, but she'd have a tad more cranial mass behind.

Remember the spine goes into the hole of the skull and theres a whole complex network of tendons and joints that put all that together which is worth studying, it'd add a lot of believability to your stuff even if it just ends up moving some of your heads over a couple inches.
I'd also suggest trying to ink a few things, get a good brush with an ideal sensitivity and try to simplify your shapes, omit lines and use a heavy dark color to make things pop and show depth. Charles Dana Gibson is a personal favorite ;)
