Decent job, though the first seems a little too plain on the color side. The shading on his face and hair give the separate parts a strange look, as if the shading you used and base color were merged. Though the text is rather interesting.
The second one is more preferable, yet I did not like the fact that his hair was almost exactly the same as the surrounding sky. It gives the coloring a shallow feel. The shading you did on this face seems blotchy as well. Keep practicing though, you'll get the hang of it in no time.
