The title is kinda self-explanatory.

So far, I haven't been able to find any new beards save the make-up kind. What I'm looking for is a long, "Viking" style beard or possibly any Sims 2 conversions (if I remember correctly they had a longer Santa Claus beard). Hm. Strange there should be no beards out there.... :-O

Browsing TS2 section, I came across this unlocked "Father Time" style beard. It's almost exactly what I'm looking for!

I really need to get a clue regarding mesh conversions, it seems....

Im going To bump this as Im looking for this to

I also want the beard too, especially if someone can convert TS2 father of time and santa beard.

I also really want a longer beard!!

Bump! I'm trying to make some Viking sims, too!

I too would like some longer beards! Y'can't make a proper dwarf with such tiny beards, it's insulting!

I want this too! Dumbledore isn't complete without a long wizard beard!

Omg we NEED long beard meshes; I've been thinking this for MONTHS now! I secon dthirdfourthfifth everyone's comments!

i'll bump too, because i'm looking for something like that. not that long tho. but it do want a luscious beard.

I am also looking for the long Dumbledore beard and much longer wild wild hair for adult and elder males.

Yes I am long for long beard as well

Particularly long beard like : 1) Santa 2) Manly beard like a lumber jack
3) long straight beard like ZZ Top

Good news, I finally got around to mesh editing and I am now fully prepared to create beards myself! Yay!

Could you people please give me a list of beard styles you would like to see in TS3? I make no promises, but I am willing to give this a try so our Sims can finally be manly.

Expect a couple of uploads soonish. :-)

Rockerduck - There's at least six different styles named on this here thread already... why not pick any one of those to get started?

That's the plan. ;-)

Hi,
on this site there is atleast one beard:

http://sims3sims.blogspot.com/
hf with it.

Personally I'd like a goatee beard that hangs away from the face. You can see the type of beard I mean in various stages of neatness: here, here, here, here (two beards in this shot!) and here. Notice that in some of the pictures (the formalwear and fancy dress) he's recently trimmed his beard so it is neat. In other pictures it is more wild and woolly. There are also topless photos here, with computer and here, with a duvet. I think they're decent enough because he's a boy and you can't see anything interesting, but I wouldn't want someone to click on a topless photo without a warning!

After clicking the link, you can click on the photos to get them bigger for beard texturing, and they were all taken with my camera so I have higher resolution versions available.

Do you need a link to the World Beard and Moustache Championships rules to get some ideas for different beard styles? Or is my partner's beard enough to be getting on with?

Ahaha, yes. I made this Shavo Odadjian.

Yea, I had to ask Necrodog for him to convert his S2 version of this beard, I seriously cannot find any long beards

Need some more.

ne14gzus93, I like your beard but I can't find where to locate it for download. Any direct link? Thanks!!

Rockerduck, a long but THIN beard as for Dumbledore and maybe a long beard tied halfway down as Dumbledore wore in one of the movies. If you need a pic, I'll look for one! Thanks!!

Yes we definatley need some longer beards like for vikings, dumbledore and dwarfs from the lord of the rings!

So....there's no possibility to create a new mesh for beards, right?

It is possible. I have a go a while back but I haven't figure out how the textures work. You can clone long bear under makeup.

If you figure out how the re-texture work, you will be a hero of mine

I would love an exact link to the beard too, just can't find it, though there are some links on the blog that were useful for me

For inspiration:

but I REALLY would like something like this:

or this:

or at least this:

I mean - a bit chaotic looking full beard with mustache, so almost no mouth is visible.

I was surprised to see that there are no big beards in any downloads for TS3
Could anybody create some BIG beards, please?

Yeah I agree, Ive been searching for a new big beard since the game was released. Im looking for a big bushy beard nothing trimmed neatly. In the style of Sam Beam from iron & wine. Could somebody create this?

It is entirely possible. However, shortly after I bragged about how I was able to create beards my entire computer went out and I'm having hardware trouble since. I haven't been motivated to re-install everything needed yet. :/
For textures, try UVMapper though I'm not sure it works - I only played with the mesh so far.

I'm still waiting for those TSM conversions myself. They have some nice beards I definitely want to see!
