Please reply with your feedback.

They look ok, I like them but they could look better. Might I ask why there are holes carved into the rocks?
The holes carved in are for detail, and more shape.

They look unnatural not going to lie. They’re way too rough around the edges, and don’t have the look that rocks have. I don’t think trying to create rocks using unions is a good idea either, I’d recommend meshes made in Blender, or something like that.

You’re looking for feedback aren’t you?
Not going to lie, you came here for feedback, I’m giving it to you. The rocks don’t look natural, and need more detail. As I said, I recommend using a program like blender to make a mesh that can be used in Roblox.
I agree with @sloss2003 although they look pretty neat, they’re also pretty unnatural for rocks.
Take for example:
The parts circled in blue show unnatural formations. It feels as though someone literally went and ate a piece of it. Another thing is that the flat parts are, how should I put this, a little too flat. Rocks will always have a sort of rounded edge yet bumpy surface. Unless its a perfect rock in which ca-
Regardless, any objects, even rocks, will always have a smooth edge, never would it have a straight, 90 or so edge.
Of course, you can use blender to make this process much more easier: How to Create Low Poly Rocks in 1 Minute - YouTube
However, if you want to go the roblox way, you can surround the (Im guessing you started off with a squished sphere) sphere with flat parts, all around, surroudning it. It may be time consuming but it should give you smooth edges/more realism.
Also I’m gonna guess again that you don’t like to take feedback so I’ll say this, feedback is important, if its critism, feedback, anything above, take it. Its like gold for your art.

They look decent, however it could definitely be improved. For starters, it looks extremely unnatural, I don’t get why there are shapes cut into the rock. I understand that you tried to tried to give it a more shape and try to add in some extra detail, but I don’t think that really works.
Also, rather than using Roblox Studio (I am assuming you used it to make your rocks) to make your rock, I would suggest learning to use blender, if you haven’t already done so. It may be more difficult and have a more complex user interface at first, but it gives you much more freedom over your models. Also, it is much quicker, what would take studio 15 minutes could take blender only a few seconds to model. Also another reason why you should switch over to blender is because union-ing your objects hurts your game’s performance and could cause lag for people with lower-end PCs.
However, if you still want to stick with the simplicity of roblox studio, instead of just have a sphere and cutting out shapes inside it, I would use @3rdhoan123’s method
Overall, though it could definitely be improved, I like the rocks.
