6 is probably the weakest in my opinion; the huge range of brightness kind of give the photo an amateurish feel. More even lighting would make it look more professional.
I really like the way number 8 looks, just has a sick look to it. the high contrast and simplicity of it really work well.
number 9 is my favorite though, that is one happy photo.

more happy because i was entertained by it, not so much the expression. can't really tell what that expression is.

2 and thirteen were awesome. Are you developing this yourself?

There isn't much detail in the photo's, they're all seriously black and white with not really any grey area in between.

As for the portraits and other shots there doesn't seem to be a real focus in any of the photos, it's as if you're just shooting and not taking your time to line up the shot.

I say concentrate on looking on everything that's in the shot, making it look like there's a focal point and try to make everything level too, it'll make all your shots way cleaner looking.

Sick stuff though man, glad to see you shooting film!

i'd work on print quality, desk specks, scratches and whatnot. keep with it, photo is a lot of fun! and shooting and printing with film makes you slow down and think about what you are shooting
