See this is what I was talking about in my thread. I love the look with the slightly longer goatee and a full beard to "back" it.

I would definitely keep it going if I were you.

In a few more weeks, you may want to think about carving it a little below the ears so that it follows the same lines as you have elsewhere though. That's just my opinion though looking at the last couple of shots and really depends on what you want to eventually do.
