Not to say I could do any better myself, but those models are quite amateurish. The person who made them is talented, but they've focussed on crafting the details, and not so much on the macroscopic form of the characters (I am talking about the Abe model particularly). The Mullock model is better.

I realised some years ago that I was always wrong in the way I tackled Art, focussing on the details when drawing something, and not focussing on getting the more overall shapes and sizes of the object/person i was drawing. The overall form is always the first thing someone sees, and only on closer inspection do the details have any kind of significance. I think I learned this after studying Impressionism in A-level Art. Thinking about it, it was quite a shift in my way of thinking in how I reflect what I see, and I think the realisation induced a lot of self-doubt in my artistic ability.
