automatizing a random mosaic or creating a texture
it's possible to make a texture type scale with inkscape, already it exists this effect or functionality?

effect "mosaic"

I don't think inkscape has that. Looks like the POV-ray pattern 'Crackle':
http://www.povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/372/
--clip-- Mathematically, the set crackle(p)=0 is a 3D Voronoi diagram of a field of semi random points and crackle(p) < 0 is the distance from the set along the shortest path (a Voronoi diagram is the locus of points equidistant from their two nearest neighbors from a set of disjoint points, like the membranes in suds are to the centers of the bubbles).
With a large scale and no turbulence it makes a pretty good stone wall or floor. **OR TURTLE** With a small scale and no turbulence it makes a pretty good crackle ceramic glaze. Using high turbulence it makes a good marble that avoids the problem of apparent parallel layers in traditional marble." --unclip--
Of course the 2D version would be different, but same starting point I think. Then of course there's the issue of wrapping it around the turtles limb, but I think that wouldn't be so hard by hand using inkscape's node editing tools.

By the way, this might make a useful Python effect for Inkscape: Fill the inside of a path with random points and build a Voronoi diagram (as a set of polygon paths) of these points, or of the path's nodes, or both. Any takers?
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi

Doing Voronoi diagrams (and delaunay triangulations) robustly is tricky. Simpler algorithms tend to barf on input that has too many collinear points, or has points placed exactly on a grid. And the textbook implementations usually avoid constraints altogether. But the Triangle lib by Jonathan Shewchuk handles all that and more quite beautifully and can create both Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay triangulations of the interiors of arbitrary polygons. (Arbitrary in the sense of being concave and having holes. Probably not self-intersecting ones, though I haven't tried that).

The author might be willing to make such a DIRECT ARRANGEMENT with inkscape folks. Worth contacting him. I've not found anything better for making "nice" triangulations of shapes.

Livarot used to do Voronoi diagrams.

The Gimp has a filter that will do that: 'Filters > Distorts > Mosaic'. An example I made last year (including some additional steps):

Total no-clue-bie here, just a wild guess -- if you are looking for open code to do things like vornoi, go ask the devs at Blender 3D.
/d
We use CGal for our work, that would give access to some other nice features like Convex Hulls. And, as an added bonus, there are Python bindings.
