Here's one of my friends... (if you're wondering why some are brown, it's because we're from the Philippines)

If you're using photoshop, watch out when you use the paint bucket, it leaves white gaps.
But I think you first need to work on your drawing. A lot of them are really rough and sketchy, do some more practicing on bodies.

Stiff poses, and hastily drawn. Spend more time on your work, there's no reason the lines should be jutting out of place.

They're cartoons so there is not much to crit because it could be your style. One suggestion I do have is: play around with Photoshop layers.. you can color behind the lines you drew and get rid of those white gaps someone previously mentioned.

Good luck =D

I think as cartoon's they're pretty good. One thing I would work on is your shading in Photoshop. There's a couple easy ways to work on shading and highlighting in photoshop. Mess around with layers, shades of gray, and your layer settings. Don't be afraid to use multiple layers for shading on characters. In my artwork I can sometimes use upwards towards ten layers of highlights and shading. Besides that I think they look really well done.
