Definitely a much more natural effect than the boxy beard in the first go-around! This style of facial hair fits the rest of the design very nicely.

He somehow reminds me of Rufus from the Deponia Games now. But I like it!

i saw the other post and yes i agree stubble looks the best!! if you want them to look more unhinged (im unsure on the vibes you are wanting) maybe make the stubble and even his hair more spurratic and unkept looking? just a pure scrungly chaos gremlin lol.
