How do I make a sort of scaly normal map in Blender that wraps seamlessly, like a procedural texture? Nothing fancy, basically like Voroni bumps. Can such a thing have the size be controlled by vertex painting? Like feet smaller than the back?

geonodes + the convoluted normal map baking/projection process you have to look up every time you do it?

Search seamless 4D noise

Tried Google, didn't find it. Any hints as to where?

Do you think it could work in 3d?

As in, mapped to Suzanne or complex object?

It's a texture, so it obeys your UV map. If you truly need a seamless 3D noise texture you'd need 5D noise. I don't think you need that, though.
Some guy hacked it into blender his own way though http://www.spacetoast.net/games/dig

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
