Well, to start things off, look at some reference pictures.
Then you'll realise that our heads are not spheres.
Then read some tutorials about lighting, and especially learn how much light reflects of certain materials (is it called specular? not 100% sure about that)
and then remove the crap glow.
I highly recommend you start from scratch rather than update the icon.
Still wouldn't be the worst approved icon if it was to be approved. Take a look at a few of 13lackDeath's icons. Try to copy that kind of style. If you want to go a little over board. Try to do something like CRAZYRUSSIAN's work.
Look at some 2D tutorials over at the tutorials section.
Other than that. Keep trying. And put more work into your icons.
