Alright, here we go:
First Picture- I like the style, and the car. From what I can tell, the shading is not too bad. As for criticism, the only real major problem are the wheels. There are two key things wrong with the wheels:
First, the shape of the wheels is a bit wobly, and chunky. This can be fixed by simply practicing ellipses. The wheels are also inconsistent from front to rear. Observe: the front wheels are angled pretty straight, while the rear is angled backward.
Secondly, the most obvious problem is the with the front wheels. Theyre too high! The wheels are up way too high on the body, like an extreme, extreme lowering job, able to be done only while floating...
Also, the headlights seem a bit small.
Second Picture-My critiques of cartoons arent as educated as some peoples on here...kartoonz...but i can try my best to give some advice. Like the first drawing, the wheels arent elliptical, but rather wobbly. I also notice that there is an extremely shaky line on the C-pillar, and front spoiler. Also, the grille doesnt seem centered.
I do however like the actual picture and especially the exhaust smoke lol.
Third Picture- Right off the bat, who is that?
Now, before i say anything else, i have to say that it definately need shading. Otherwise, it hardly looks realistic. As for shading tips, it would take another 2 or 3 hours of writing to list them all, so i suggest chicking this site (http://www.sibleyfineart.com/index.htm?tipsndx.htm) out. It has some very good shading tips and techniques.
Symmetry, or at least significant similarities are very important when drawing people. Note that ears, side of the nose, cheeks, eye placement, and usually sides of the mouth are very symmetrical. In your piece, some of these items are not symmetrical, and could be easily corrected. I notice the ears and the cheeks right away.
As for the neck and below, i cant really see it, so i cant really comment on that.
Fourth Picture- I know that that is a WRX, and I know how one should look. Your piece is farily accurate, with only a few corrections needed. First, i think your car is a bit too wide. Easily fixed: bring the far left side closer in. Secondly, i think that it is definately to short. The body needs to be taller, which is easily fixed by, well, making it taller.
Aside from that, minorities such as line quality, ellipse accuracy, and spoiler angle are a few other things i feel i ought to mention. I cant really say much more other than i think it definately needs to be shaded!
Fifth Picture- Im not a huge fan of drawing animals, nor am i very experienced. So im not going to be able to offer much on this one. What i can say, is that my intuition tells me that the whole face should be at the same angle as the ears. Um, show the otehr teeth, eyes, nose, etc. Im not sure though, if you have a reference pic, this is a great time to look at it closely.

Overall, you have some great artwork, and some great talent. I hope to see some of these finished in the near future! And i hope this helps.

Thanks alot! It really helped. I did the wheels on the 2nd pic wobbly intentionally. Some of you may remmember when dreams190 requested his car like done in the Carl Geatrix style. The third pic is a self-portrait. I'm not too good at drawing people, I only did it for art class. I'll shade the WRX soon. All of my car drawings start out like that. Again, thanks for the crits. keep 'em coming!
