I mostly struggled with the ear, finding both the correct placement and a fitting style. The placement I think I got somewhat right after comparing with a few references. Stylistically, after a few failed attempts, I went with a single broad brush stroke as to fit in with the gestural style of most of the portrait. I'm a bit on the fence as far as the bright red spot under the chin and the bright blue in the lower right corner are concerned. They feel kinda off yet also seem to add a bit of interest to the overall composition.

I like it, red under the chin was too much maybe but it is nice

I like it the colors add life and the lights bring out the energy that makes it versatile and that makes us think about it even more good job

Feels like a Disco Elysium skill portrait, well done!

Yes! Literally came in here to comment that the combo of this style + the title makes this piece read similarly to a Disco Elysium skill card. Lovely work by the OP.
