Should I give up on Loomis?

I’ve always been afraid of portraits and human figure in general, but also really wanted to draw them, so I decided to try Loomis following his books instructions and trying to get the best of it trying to reproduce his references and then repeat it from memory.

The problem is, I think I lack perspective skills and I’m unsure about the results I’m getting, they all look kind of weird, which may be expected, but it raised the question Loomis could wait I little until I’m more experienced, I would really appreciate any help.
