going for a diferent style/feel?

Your little sketches remind me of my friend Gus's artwork. Cept his art is reminiscent of Chris Bachalo to a certain extent.

...is that a good thing, or a bad thing?

Its a good thing. He used to draw people with what I called "beer" faces, but has since changed that. If you want to know what bachalo's art looks like, look up Generation X (first 30 issues) or Steampunk.
