For a first try they're not really bad

 

There are lots of variations of gothic callygraphy - the one you're resembling here is very textura like.

 

You'll probably find lots of resources on blackletter/gothic scripts (google is your friend ) - one example that is really good can be found here:

Also, if you're really into it, Rudolf Koch's work can be really inspiring

One simple step to greatly improve: use guidelines.
