Metaru, I would try to be more constructive, for example by saying "the whole problem of the image is that its a mess." you could better suggest to try to clean it up by adding another color instead of using the poor dithering technique for the beard. Also the dithering on the hair on the right side looks messy... it might work just fine if it were solid instead. Personally, i avoid dithering at all costs unless its absolutely necessary for texture.
in that case, you should try to define more the shapes and the face features and try to use a more steady linework. the whole problem of the image is that its a mess.
I was wathing on photograph when i draw this, but i drawed without any picture as the backround, if you got that on mind. Sorry, my English is weak, so my posts can be meaningless, or i can undestand something in wrong way, I'm sorry for that.
lets say, did you use a reference or draw over an existing image? also i dont see a real need for that amount of random specs, even when they are suposed to be his beard.
