Thank you!  The scales are courtesy of a bump_map from a rendering of a bunch of
cylinders.  My original plan was to do an intersect with the monster's base
image (a union of cylinders) and a bunch of oddly-shaped, unevenly-distributed
cylinders for the scales, but then I spotted some bad math: thousands of
cylinders + intersect = guaranteed melted hole on my desk where my computer once
sat...  8O

I didn't think YT categorized _anything_, leastways not unless it's about cats,
lulz, memes, or conspiracy theories ;)
