Worked more on the sculpt and baked a normal map. I also put together a quick diffuse map from photos. The diffuse may be helping the likeness, am I right? Any comments are appreciated.
Maybe you'll want to tone down the specularity.
The profile of your nose is very distinctive, and this appears lost in the model.
You've made the brow appear very prominent on the contrary, but it doesn't seem to push out quite that far.
Not sure if you did already, but you might consider doing some pencil sketches from the reference photographs as study; it will force your eyes to study the proportion and integration of the features, which is not to be underestimated in depicting likenesses...
No idea how this drawing could possibly be useful, but am posting as an attempt to highlight some of the incontinuities. As for the stubble, I'm not sure that should take precedence in sculpting over the major forms; it can be left for the colour and spec map... that's just me though, I've never actually done it one way or the other. It just makes it look like raked on high resolution detail without first working accuracy of form; a common mistake and pet peeve of many.
Hope my feedback's not completely useless! Good luck
