This is the Black skin tone version of my Colored Tongue Stud pic. Some details are different, Marcy's sandals are green, Billies shirt is darker, and Stacy's shirt is now a Superman shirt.

There are a variety of technical things that are fighting for my attention here- addressing the image itself first: I feel like the character at the right is the most effectively rendered, her pose feels a bit less static and a little more expressive. Still, the scene feels very static as a whole. The character on the left is not clutching her book but floating it in her hand, the middle figure looks odd with her hand so deep in her pocket. Nitpicky: As a purse wearing individual, it is an awkward way to wear a purse because it would slide off your shoulder when you move your hand out of your pocket. 

You have obviously paid attention to little details, tongue piercings and rings and such, which are nice touches. However, I would rather see that detail go towards adding realistic creases in clothing, or hints to the background. To me, their faces feel very busy and yet I still feel like I want to see more elsewhere. 

Lastly, this goes for all your images and unfortunately is an overwhelming critique- there is a blurriness in all your images. I think there is a reduction of quality that comes from scanning in the pencil lines. I see faint borders where crisp arms meet grainy pants. This is aggravated by the digitally colored background and details, because it is such a bright contrast to the greyish colors of the clothes. I would recommend that you ink your lines. They will come up better when you scan, be bolder, and give your drawings polish.
