I'm not going to give an in-depth critique (as that would be unfair to the patrons who pay for that), but a few things jump out at me. You should be drawing through your ellipses (as covered in lesson 1). Also, don't draw your initial masses as though they're meant to roughly enclose the more developed forms later on. At every stage, the forms you add to a construction are meant to represent a solid mass, which you build up over successive phases. Right now you're treating it very much as though they're just 2D shapes, so it ends up reading as being rather flat.
Look more closely at my demo - you'll see that I build the core of the head, for example, and then add new forms to it - at no point do I suggest that the previous forms I've put down are approximate or exploratory.

I recently had to 3D model a cockroach and looking at reference scarred me haha.
