Welcome to the forum David.

I had a look at your posted image and it is very sharp.
Like the others say 24MP is a good as anyone needs for portraits IMHO.
Any more and you need to soften images as very few people have perfect skin.

I would say that if you want to concentrate on your portrait photos then you have all the lenses you need. The 105mm f1.4 AFS is I am sure a very good lens but in terms of depth of field (DOF) it will be similar to the 85 f1.4 on a FX body. I talking practical use not theoretical calculations.

The FX v DX debate is one that will rage on like the old 36mm v 120 one used to so I wont go there.
In your case I would say you are equally well served for portraiture but there may be some very small advantage in a FX camera but in exchange you have a bigger and usually slightly heavier body.
