yay! chibi style... my.... favorite.....
ok i lied, i hate most chibi stuff. but hey, whatever floats your boat.

so, since i dont have too much time i'm gonna start with your faces/heads
overall they aren't too bad, you're off to a good start, but since they ARE chibi it's kinda hard to critique... i mean... they're messed up anatomically, but on purpose...
so even though it's wrong... at the same time it is right.

BUT! even though the style is "super deformed" you still have to follow the basic rules.
so, here's some pretty pictures i made for ya



so... in this picture, the guys head is tilted to his right.
if we look at the eyeline though (blue line) his eyes go on an angle opposite to that.
you should make a habit of drawing cross shaped lines across the center of the face. it will help to get the angles right.
this however, was only on this one guy, all your other pictures were good with the eyelines.

the overall problem you seem to have with the faces are the positions of the nose and mouth. and the size of your eyes.
your eyes are.... HUGE, even for a chibi i think they're a little big.

MOST IMPORTANTLY**
the nose should be half way between the eyes and the chin!
The mouth should be half way between the nose and the chin!
practice these things and you should be drawing more anatomically correct faces in no time.

as for the body, i can show you that next time.
so, thats all i got for you at this moment, hope i helped a bit.
if you have any questions i'd be glad to lend a hand.

sorry if that all sounded a little harsh btw, just trying to help out.
