The beard is a bit odd; vikings (in general) were not known for their meticulously sculpted facial hair... Large & bushy beard? Fine. Beard just coming in for the young 'uns? That could work...

The color isn't working for me. It just seems muddy. I'd recommend picking a more traditional color - brown or blonde, or possibly even red.

The horns on the skull on his shoulder should be replaced with those from an actual animal - an old norse sheep might be a good match:

The medallions holding his cloak could use some work, at least for the beauty shot. A Celtic knot in the normal map would be nice. BTW, some of the cloak hair is poking through the medallions.

The cloak hair texture could use a little softening towards the tip; the strands feel very coarse at the moment.

The shield feels strangely polygonal considering the polygon density of the rest of the image.
