You've got the diaphram right on, but only a few ribs would take up that space.
Eh. I haven't seen my ribs in years, so I forgot how many there are supposed to be. It's not twelve, but six. I started off with three, and said "That can't be right." and doubled it. :/

The second one's pretty damned good. The only problem I see is that his right arm is too short. I would also make his right hand open, but that is strictly a personal preference, and has little consequence on way or the other.
The right arm is my poor attempt at foreshortening. And I can't make his hand open, because he doesn't have hands.
