Brilliant puzzles!
Typo in solution code: 4x4 instead of 6x6

Fun! Each one forced me to think about how the skyscraper numbers related to each other. Though, the number of times I had to remind myself that numbers could repeat along a skyscraper-hint row/column...

Lovely set. Just a nitpicky point about the Solution code though. I think what you require is actually R1C1 of each sudoku grid. In some cases the puzzle contains (or might be understood to contain) a number further to the left.
