I had loads of trouble with the angle of the 25 min one. Im also undersizing the features, I think so anyway, what do you think?

I don't think you're undersizing the features, correct placement of features is the NUMBER ONE thing for faces, so don't be afraid to use guidelines and then erase and correct when something looks off.
one thing to note especially for the 3/4 view is that the face is slightly curved so the features will wrap around the face, so pay attention to the width of the eyes in proportion to one another, the far side of the mouth will be smaller, etc.
Also the nose for 3/4 view is tricky, remember that the face is not flat, the mouth and nose part sticks out compared to the eyes, which are set back. that means at 3/4 angle the nose is gonna be a lot closer to the edge of the face than you expect, and much less centered between the eyes as it is in a front view. so watch for that in your blue, purple and green drawings.
general tips are to always measure your proportions, remember that the back of the head is larger than we expect, avoid making the chin too small, and details are always less important than proportion and placement! great work keep it up!
p.s. i really recommend chommang drawing youtube channel, literally changed my life when learning to draw faces!!!!!!

For specifics, I would like to see a little more time put into the lips/mouth. They don't appear to be following the angle of the face very clearly, and thus look flat. Additionally, the lips look similar across all the faces.
The eyes could also use a little more work in terms of looking more third dimensional.
Overall, you are at a great place right now! Really focus on the form and try to reference the Asaro head as much as you can to understand the planes of the face. :)
I've always had difficulty with the mouth, so knowing specifics to work on is super helpful. I can't thank you enough x
