Nice! And pores are great for realism. I tried grey scale map for scatter- I made the ear texture brighter- and it's closer. I notice the back of the head appears more glossy now.

The skin looks dry because I'm still working on the roughness but good on you for pointing it out. While it will have a little more oil to it, I'm not going for a super glossy look because he's not meant to be sweating a lot. So I have to play around with the texture in Substance to get the effect I want. Also need to get rid of those eyebrows. Super messy looking. Yes, the brighter areas on the scatter map are meant to allow more of the effect in that area. I may need to darken the grey a bit while leaving the white areas white but again, this is all early stages still. I find the biggest thing that helps skin look realistic though is pores that have direction as opposed to just a simple noise. That's what really sells the look.
