These are really nice, especially the structure and proportions of them. I think to help improve the look of them, focusing on the line of action and the energy of the poses at first might really help you, since it seems like you already have the structures somewhat down. Also, focusing on the lights and darks of the areas rather than the outlines can really help to capture unique body shapes! I find that using watercolor or some other type of brush marker/wet medium after a base sketch and focusing on the dark and lights of the image really help me find those specific shapes.

Don't be afraid to try and sketch different body types and poses, too! Great job so far!

These are so good for thirty seconds, especially for someone who hasn't done much of them before! You've captured a lot of the energy of the poses, which is so important for figure studies! I feel like to build off of these to do them for a longer period, it might be nice to focus more on the structure and proportions of the figures instead of the energy - since it seems like you already have that down in your base sketch! My advice is to try to diversify the structure and proportions of your poses, since a lot of these look like the same figure in different poses rather than different people. But again, in thirty seconds you've managed to capture so much already!

Great job!
