Default Lord Pickleton's Polygonal Self

Spent the last two days making this thing so I can have a new avatar for all my accounts. I really don't like taking/posting pictures of myself, but I find polygonal portraits okay. Going to try some different colors and maybe my normal skin color. Although it was kind of a pain to make I do think it was worth the time and effort.

Give me your opinions and how you think I can improve.

Chin and neck area is quite off - As in it doesn't look like it isn't really connected, but rather the head is on the neck.

How do you feel about the hairs sticking up?

Think I'm going to smooth most of the hair and do a better job at showing my hair's natural shape. I'll see what I can to about the chin and neck. Chin does stand out a lot since it's brighter than it's surroundings.

Going to test out adding some gradients tomorrow.

Added after 14 Hours 50 minutes:

Made some adjustments today. Reworked the hair and changed the colors in the neck and chin. Hopefully it's a little better.

Here's a comparison. Ver.3 on the left and Ver. 2 on the right.
