Your look is too "generic" as in you could be *anything.*
I live in the area where there are a lot of German surnames and a lot of German ancestry.
The looks of SOME people around here - I sometimes wonder why they even speak English as their native tongue))) But on a few occasions when I asked them about their ancestry they admitted it was German, however they seemed to be oblivious to their looks.
Anyone who claims they can tell apart ethnic faces from countries whose whose population and borders hasn't remained insanely homogenous for hundreds of years is completely full of it (exceedingly few). Sorry but no, there is no way of telling if you have a 'German face' because that doesn't really exist.
Oh no! What have you done!! Saxonwold is going to have fits over this one! You must be an American? Perhaps you can tell me what 'German features' are exactly? And then you can tell me why only Germans have these features?
Germans as a whole don't have super obvious facial features. But there are regional similarities.
A Swabian has a distinct look, as does a Hamburger (really anyone native to the far north is likely to have a "look"). A Rhinelander, not so much. Bavarians, not as much.
But there are still differences. Bavarians and Swabians are obviously darker than Northerners; Rhinelanders are somewhere in the middle. The areas bordering Netherlands are probably the blondest/palest/tallest; mountainous areas bordering Switzerland and Austria are probably the darkest/shortest.

Thank you for the good laugh. You forgot to mention that all Americans look like Abe Lincoln.
