Interesting studies.
I don't know if I would study Frazetta ink sketches though, I mean they have a lot of energy and fluid lines, which might not be the best to study in a slow, careful manner. I feel it's a bit like making a master study after a gesture drawing, you know? Like that naked woman on a horse, the animal's legs are just scribbled lines to indicate value, not sure how much there is to gain from copying those lines.
The last one of the pterodactyls and sabertooth feels more like what you should study, but why not just set up a still life and render it in pen while looking at several images done by Frazetta so you can emulate his style. That way you can directly apply what you see from him.
Maybe that doesn't make sense, just my opinion.
Either way, good luck.
