I think one thing re: scraggy faces was that in the un-modded game, the camera angle was fixed in one position and didn't allow much of a view of the character's faces. Maybe the game designers thought they could get away with not handing out combs and razors. hehe. ^^
Still, it made me wonder why so, so many of the male faces were so weathered and rough looking. Jeez. Not that some of the female skins weren't rough too...*shudders*
For some of the characters, I wanted to stay with kind of the original "theme", so to speak. For example, Gyorn still looks a bit older and rough, but not as much as he did before. Some of the faces I just didn't like at all (Sikra, Andiemus and Phaedriel for starters) and decided to make or edit new faces for them.
I decided to make Merik a young guy who works out. By snooping around the expansion files I found a male body skin I could use for him in the evil c monsters folder (the doppelganger skin).
Check out that six pack, lol.
But I do agree, the males could definitely use some more work. I'm not that enthused about my results for Lord Bolinger and Zed. Andiemus came out ... okay.

Here is another version of Sikra I had:
