that bad? lol Thought this was the "critique Corner" Seems more like the "Watch in the Corner.....Corner?" hahah

I think they are pretty good. I'm just diving into OCF myself. Did you use any modifiers?

#4 seems especially well lit, where #5 the lighting is a little flat (to much the same on both sides).

The backdrop really detracts from what could be really great shots. Note the difference between shots 2 and 3. Both were shot at F4 but he's too close to the background in #2 so we see all that detail. In #3 he's much farther away and while you can still see some background detail it's much less distracting. Try getting the model further from the backdrop and minimize the DOF to get that detail to melt away.

Nice job!

First has the best light for me....

Your first time is a lot better than mine.

Your model is giving you a lot here. Great job, give him a raise.

I agree, great if it wasn't for that bg. The only other irritation was the drool on his sweat shirt which made him look unwashed.

Agree with most of what's already been said, but a cracking first attempt!
