hi guys, I've done three skull studies from the three main angles. Any tips to improve my anatomy skills?

Nice drawings! I think you've done a good job with the shading and it's great to see you trying different angles of the skull. Just a thought: If the goal of your studies is to learn anatomy it might be beneficial to ignore shading and instead show the forms with crosscontours, to save time. That way you'll manage to do more drawings and get to know the anatomical forms even better. Hope this helps :) Keep up the good work!

Nice penciling! The third one looks good. But be careful to not over exagurate your gesture or just your lines. In the second skull there is too much points and diagonals on the face, like the super pointy and sharp chin. The first skull looks good but it seems too square, specially on the upper part of the head. You could use 3D online models to practice anatomy, one site I reccomend is sketchfab.com, there is a great library of simple 3D models. You already seem to master the planes and it's shadows, so keep up the great work!

Try to use one line as an outline for the skull insted of doing the thick scracky ones . And try not to add light and shadow untill you have the shape right.

Try to draw the skull while looking at a real head as a reference,
