I liked them too -- they have =character!= -- but the
predilection for big noses doesn't work for some characters
(notably Fleur, who is, let's face it, supposed to be a
Knockout).  And I thought Petunia looked too young and tousled. 
(If it's a picture of a younger Petunia -- as a teenager, say --
I could believe it.)  I liked =all= of the Weasleys a lot,
especially the twins and Percy!  The expressions are perfect!
