This Twitter Beard lets everyone have an instant illustrated mass of facial hair. After all, not everyone can grow a mustache in honor of Movember. Von R. Glitschka is the digital artist behind the first beard; he was inspired by a mask assignment he gave his Digital Illustration students.
The third image shows what Von R. Glitschka's students came up with. Would you rock this Twitter beard in honor of Movember?
Implications - It would be a different and interactive way to have your voice heard and mustache seen.
