the bottom pic is the Hasegawa 1/72 kit... and their interpretations of the line-art have been oft-criticized, lol:D

the line art is as it appears on-screen, Hasegawa's head is 'out of spec' as it were, so if you're going for on-screen accuracy, then go with the line-art.

 

***update***

the only shots I've been able to find so far in the anime seem to show no bulge on the back of head unit on the VF-0S:

*Scene cited for evidence: Shin vs Roy hand-to hand training, episode 2, 14:13 for a timecode on my copy*

 

***Further Update***

then there's THIS shot, during the assault on the carrier, where in gerwalk the head DOES seem to have the Hasegawa bulge at the back... so it's up to you I suppose;)

I would look at the anime, since the valk was CG animated it should already be a good compromise between "official" line art and realistic design.If both are the same, then you should be fine!
