CSS texturing

I did this as a part of concept design stage for our TCC web site. Learned some cool features of CSS, this texture is acctual screenshot of background pattern rendered with CSS in Mozilla.

CSS texture, no loading, no bandwith=cool.

copy and paste into CSS selector for a nice web background.(mozilla browser..)
1) background: -moz-repeating-linear-gradient(37% 1% 160deg,#0F0F0F, #404040, #1C1C1C 1%);
2) background: -moz-repeating-linear-gradient(13% 1% 109deg,#0F0F0F, #404040, #1C1C1C 5%);

Gained some speed by the end of the challenge. Tried to do the environment  but since ZB lacks of proper perspective it was to painful. Scales are done trough displacement map applied in Z brush, but this is not the way it should be done (btw scales are to big), such a large -long creature has to have a lot of good details,control maps and repetitive textures, multiple UV sets, that would be a good approach. For this one to be crisp even 8k texture wouldn't suffice. Great exercise for speed and inter-collisions.

My entry for Frank Frazetta tribute challenge:
This is a speedy one, two days for modeling and rendering.This yellow material is one that I use the most, it is a modified basic material (not a matcap). It works with custom lighting setup.
