It's good to see the different expressions being played with her as you really push for an understanding of Shere Khan. Be wary of Disney - most folks think of it when thinking of the Jungle Book, and stylistically these start to bend in that direction. The expression studies are great, however. Take a step back to look at tiger anatomy,as well. For the one on the bottom, remember how massive a tiger's head is. For the seated one, he looks a bit like a house cat whose rump suggests he's been well fed. For the environments, try to dig deeper into the nature of the jungle than silhouette. I do think you begin to hit something in the bottom right that speaks to a feeling of deep, dense jungle. The others need a bit more meat to them, and detail, to work as images that tell a story about a place. The bottom left, for example, only suggests a river with trees, which we already know is probably in the jungle somewhere. In the drawing, what can you tell the viewer about it they don't already know?
