stealing another idea. Saw Tek's excellent paint texture on a decent 
monitor and had to try it just one more time. Idea courtesy Tor, of course.

I like it !

Is the texture a modified version of Tek's metallic paint texture ?

OK, now, that one's really cool.  Although so was the other one.  And
Tek's_ture looks like it was made just for your surface.

For myself, if I didn't have Tor's ideas to steal, I'd just be left with
stealing from you, or Christoph, or Gilles, or Mike Williams, or Fredrich
Lohmuller, or . . . .  ("If I can see farther than the end of my nose, it
is only because I am standing on the feet of giants" to paraphrase Newton.)

Not unless changing the pigment counts as modifying. :)
I made this on a monitor much too poor for any texture development, much 
less tweaking.

Yes, I am quite impressed by that texture. Can't take credit for much of 
the "coolness." It's inherent in the shape. I just made the cleanest 
version I could. Many, many, many, many triangles.

  Well, I've always been impressed with your images and your
'minimalist style with Zap'.

   It's a style that I couldn't do, so I enjoy what I see. What you've
done with the design in this image is impossible for any machine to
make, (CNC/CAD/CAM, etc.)

  I like it when people push the boundaries a little. I would like
this image as an oil painting as it looks now.

Thank you. I'm proud of my work ethic on quick images like this one.

> It's a style that I couldn't do,

Bah! You could do it easily. There's a trick to it. Form every shape 
very carefully, smooth out every corner, pull every vertex tight, make 
sure nothing is stretched, and "Zap" happens on its own. Of course, 
lifting a cool texture and cool idea from other posts doesn't hurt. :)

Hmmm... - Let me see if I got that right:

You used that texture but with another pigment ?
