The physical technique of gouache and graphite are pretty different. Do still life drawings with graphite and strictly limit yourself to 5 values. If you want to get better with graphite you need more mileage with it.

But are you trying to work on portraits right now? I would stick with limiting your values and pumping out more portrait practice for the time being. The work you posted isn't terrible but I think you're drawing a few of the features exactly the same across all 3 heads. Most evident with the lips, etc. Trying to focus on rendering more might be muddying the form too. Do you have the refs?

Nice. Why the red tint in the shadow? For fun?
