Yes the current V3 Cryptonoids are fortunate enough to come with concept art which shows back + front + details (e.g. KAITO without his coat), these i'll link here :

 * KAITO : http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/File:KAITOV3_concept_art.jpg

Some personal tips I have for you is :

1. Start with MEIKO or KAITO, as they have the most simplest designs out of the ones you want.

2. Trying to redraw their art work for practice purposes is good for getting a grasp on how their designs work, do note I did say for practice purposes and not for full art.

3. Do not be afraid to change some details of their designs to suit your style of drawing.

4. If you need colours my colour pallette blog can help you there since it's specifically for VOCALOID colours : https://www.tumblr.com/blog/vocaloidcolorpalette

5. Using references for poses is not a bad thing regardless of your skill. I recomend this site for practicing poses : http://www.eggazyoutatsu.net/atarichanDrawer.html
