Those figure studies are looking nice, really well thought out and measured! Great work :D
Your poses from imagination look flat in comparison, every feature and form seems about the same distance away from the viewer. try creating some more overlap and foreshortening in those! See what happens when you put the rib cage in front of the pelvis, or the pelvis in front of the rib cage! And try to draw the limbs in foreshortened views sometimes too, get some more depth!
Here's one neat reference I always go back to when I think about body diversity!
