I think, due to the angle of his head, his chin needs to be raised or else his face needs to be pulled down, otherwise it seems like he has either a strange growth or egregious neck fat. An angle as hellishly difficult to attempt as this one needs to be pulled off consistently, especially because we normally see it during quick movements irl whereas now the viewer has the leisure of scrutinizing it however long they want (and honestly, even photographs of this angle seem "off" sometimes). The best solution is, as always, a reference. Your rendering is fantastic and the palette is consistent, which pleases the eye.
As an aside, if you want to heighten the drama, take a breather after you think you've finished a piece and come back looking for the things that could push the realism. From the blood and bullet holes, it looks like he's been fighting for a while - give him bruising with vile colors, dirt and dust scraping and covering his skin, especially winners like dirt under the nails and rough, filthy and scratched elbows. Tear his hat, bend the mic, have fun with the abuse. Again, just suggestions.
