Good work! I think the patterns in the portraits are well designed and communicate well. The use of coffins in your title is inventive and clearly read. Now think about the color.

i think the pattern you're using in the background and incorporated into the people are really strong and a very eye catching design element. i think if you took those patterns and tried to use them in the half page illustration then your idea would come across more interesting, and would tie all the illustrations together. and, although i think in the portraits it's not absolutely necessary, it would be interesting to see what they would look like with certain colors, though i know you want to do grayscale. just don't rule out the idea of color without trying first.

I really like the pattern elements in your pieces, they work well with the faces and integrate into the lines of the face. Also, many of the people look convincing... nice consistant style... the title page looks a bit bare to me though... maybe some pattern as well?
