You've got a promising start to a sketchbook going on here, you've got some nice stuff!
As far as crits, it's abit tough to give an indepth one at this point. Ive found that theres different kinds of crits, ones were you want an individual piece looking at to spot faults and the kind which points out overall weaknesses in your process. I'm guessing that your after the later but we'd probably need to see more work and stuff pushed further from you before giving a helpful crit which wasn't bullshit. You've got a large variety of work which feels inconsistant, in that nothing feels truely complete. So with that in mind, my recommendation would be to try pushing some stuff to total completion and seeing how you get on. You'll probably be able to spot the flaws your after straight away yourself, but if you don't then it'll be much easier for someone else to find them for you if you need.
On a technical point too, your portraits are looking pretty nice, i like how you handle the values, but the eyes feel abit off. They look abit flat and are abit wonky (something i struggle like crazy with myself :S)
Sorry i couldn't be of more help, just keep pushing those fundermentals and posting your work, i'll be sure to keep an eye out for you ;) Despite what i said above you've got some good skills and i look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future.
