I'm assuming that you're working on grey paper here - if you want to add some more depth to these images - try using white chalk / conte pencil to pick out hilites.
[edit] And when doing portraits - it helps to add at least a hint of the neck and shoulders to avoid the 'floating face' effect.
Even when you do get a tablet - you'll appreciate using trad. media as it gives you a feel for a variety of techniques and textures - keep at it
