I draw stick figures
But yeah, you definitely have talent, especially since you did those in 10 to 20 minutes. It'd take me hours to be able to do that, assuming I didn't just give up and stab the paper in frustration.

Well, thank you for the comments everyone. (Sorry, I didn't want to keep reposting thank you over and over.) Well, drawing and painting is a fun hobby. =D
Yes, the toaster was inspired by the Brave Little Toaster and Anime.

OH snaps! I love your artwork! Especially your style, which I think is not necessarily fluid (some works do look a bit solid as far as the strokes go imo) but so what?!

Life drawing will always look bad to the person who drew it, it's a fact of life. (More like a fact of life DRAWING gettit? ...okay fine, that was terrible.)
One suggestion, though, and it's personal opinion more than anything. Shading's nice but it doesn't make incorrect anatomy look any less incorrect. It's good but I suggest if you continue with life drawing you leave shading (Which, while nice, is not essential) until you are entirely comfortable with the figure. It's difficult to resist the temptation, especially if you're being forced to use heavy mediums, but your work will look a lot better for it.
You didn't say you wanted criticism so aside from that I won't poke too hard at you but I'd suggest you look into foreshortning at least a little. While it looks good now, making the body parts closer to the eye bigger than the ones further away makes a world of difference.
Final comment: It's nice to see people doing life drawing. Even if the drawings you do look not-so-good at first it's always a good thing, any field involving art that you go into the knowledge of proportion will be irreplaceably useful.
