I am looking to get the best bang for my buck on High-res textures for Michael2. I am looking for a set that has hairy/non-hairy bodies, and hopefully a shaved, bearded and moustached faace (3). Has anyone made anything like that?

www.daz3d.com. Daz sells the high resolution texture pack for about $35 and the standard resolution for $20. The head has morphs for beard, goatee, mustache, etc. but no hair. DAZ has several beard packs but if you have Poser 5 you have the Hair room. Another thing you should look at are the AZL Skin Tones in the marketplace here. It allows you to change the darkness of your skin textures on a number of characters, not just Michael 2.

You might also want to check out Marius by Catherina Harders, at Mec4D.com ... he is unbelieveable! Comes with bare, moustached, and bearded face and hairless body ... but a hairy matching body is available seperately. I just bought him and think he's fantastic ... a closeup render of him is in my gallery, or search for Marius here in the galleries as well.

Angelo, by Catharina--he's just gorgeous! Her new Ben and Benny are tempting me, too....But I already have SteffyZZ's Leonardo, which is also a blond male texture, so I'm resisting (with difficulty!)

Leo and Iago by Stefania are available at the attached link. They are very high resolution textures, truly top quality. Worth the slightly higher-than-average price.

OK, I have found these so far. (Some with your help, thanks)

I am still looking for more! I will let you all know what I decide upon.

Oh I bought the Millenium Beard to take care of my need for a beard and mustache.

My vote would be for Marius. Dont have him yet, but seriously considering it. Dave

HArd to argue with the low price of Marius and the optional furry body -- he is my most likely choice at the moment. I will decide when I get home from work tonight. Then I get to go through the same thing with Vic3 and Stephanie, hahaha.

I really like Darren by Jepe (JPeter). http://market.renderosity.com/softgood.ez?ViewSoftgood=19726 The hairy body is the best I've seen. The hair on the face textures included are less successful I think (although the thick eyebrows work nicely) - but the hairless face, coupled with the Millennium beard is socko! It also has a nice set of eye textures. Here's a slightly nude (no genitalia) pic with 'Darren' and Mill beard as described. Cowboy

a freebie non commercial use one is Bishop mike texture. link is in freestuff here. great freebie texture.

'Falcon' ( comes with a version for Stephanie too ) is my first favorite, coming in at second is 'Paco' . Both available in the marketplace here if I remember correctly

see some preview renders rendered using daz Global light...for that light was the textures created to get the natural soft effect of a photo..but they works well with all lights and skin tones as you wish..just universal...:P coming soon as a big package to renderosity Marketplace too..
