$1 3D Scan Prize: Richard Branson's Beard

I am sponsoring a $1 prize to be awarded to the first person to upload an original 3D scan of Richard Branson's magnificent beard to the Thingiverse and tag it as a derivative of this post.

Location: Richard Branson's chin and upper lip

Specifications:
Resolution: Medium to rough quality is okay; just need to see that it's the real deal
Format: obj/stl/skp/dwg/dxf/3dp (123D photoscan)
Scan must be taken from the original with, of course, Mr. Branson's consent
Upload must be tagged as a derivative of this post

NOTE: An additional $1 prize will be awarded if the winning scan also includes Mr. Branson's glorious mane of hair.

Possible Resources:
twitter.com/richardbranson
twitter.com/Virgin

Purpose: I need this scan, along with a few others, for a project I'm working on.

Winner will be chosen by my sole determination. Proof of authenticity may be required.

Other scan prizes:
- $1 Prize for 3D scan of an asteroid's surface
- $1 Prize for 3D scan of Challenger Deep, Marianas Trench
- $1 Prize for 3D scan of Richard Branson's beard
- $1 Prize for 3D scan of Peter Diamandis

"The masterworks of three-dimensional art are joining the digital commons. For art lovers, this technological moment represents a tremendous opportunity…"

"… [A] public-spirited race for private status, with billionaire filmmakers and tech tycoons competing to outdo one another with the quality, cleverness and exoticism of the scans they sponsor…"

"The real prestige would come … from releasing the scan to the public domain, with the sponsor’s name attached. It’s a way of becoming the Medici or Carnegie of the digital era."
