I'm going to ask a couple of questions before I critique:

How realistic or stylized were you trying to make these portraits?

Are you trying to fit them all into one composition or are these sketches for another composition?

How realistic: not too realistic, but to the point where they actually look human. As in, I used the references just for a couple of features and head positions.

I was trying to fit them all into 1 composition which came out HORRIBLY.

X_X Sorry if I confused you. I know it's not all that good.

Okay, brace yourself:

1. It's good that you recognize that it is not working as a composition. What you have, by my eye, are four sketches for a final design. I would try to do a compositional sketch in order to place things in a way that makes sense. While you're figuring out the composition, don't worry about the characters resembling the final product, just worry about the layout.

2. The faces on the top two portraits are probably the strongest and most unified. The one on the bottom left is interesting, but because it seems more stylized, it doesn't fit with the other two. The portrait on the bottom left is the weakest because you can barely see any of the face, and the arms look way out of proportion in a manner that does not seem like a styleistic choice.

3. They look like people, not gods. I understand the idea you are going for, but you need to add details or some touches to make them look godly/supernatural. Using the photo references is an excellent idea, but you need to add a bit more to them.

4. Most of the proportion distortions I'm seeing don't feel like concious choices. Something is missing and I still can't quite put my finger on it.

5. The composition needs some sort of background, even if it's not anything specific. Take a look through the popular work in traditional media, and see what other people are doing. You might get some inspiration there!

6. It's obvious that you are thinking about the bodies you are drawing, and that's important. But you are thinking about them as shapes, not forms. Remember the Elements of Art? When you draw your bodies, you have to remember that they are three dimensional shapes with weignt and mass. If you don't, you end up with characters looking unintentionally flat and static.

You're at one of those points in learning to draw and create that's at the edge of a breakthrough in how you see and draw. Keep practicing and you'll definately get there. I didn't say any of this to discourage, but rather to encourage and help you learn. Keep it up!

THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU'VE REALLY MADE MY DAY!

I'm not offended at all, I know you're trying to help me which is exactly what I want ^^. I didn't join a constructive critcism club for nothing! And thanks for a lot of the critquing xD I really appreciate it!

2. X_X So that's what's wrong with them! I knew there was something wrong with the bottom 2 faces but I just didn't know what! Thanks for clearing that up!

3. The godly thing is most certainly I had a problem with- I didn't know how to make them "godly" X_X But I'll try to redo that.

4. I'm sure something is missing. I was defiantly sure about that myself X_X.

5. It's digital art, by the way I don't know it end up in traditional art, I probably typed the wrong thing on accident when I sent it to the club since I'm so used to traditional -_- Does this rule also apply to digital art? I'm sure it does but I want to make definite sure.

6. Bodies were always a problem for me and now I know why X_X. I honestly never heard of the Elements of Art (drats my school's horrible art system)! but I will look it up ASAP, and study it like mad.

Thank you so much for the critque, this is EXACTLTY what I was looking for, I appreciate it so much

Well there's no way you need another critique, Bijutsu did it perfectly! I'll just say that I think the top right is the best one, closely followed by the top left.

Happy to help.
