Hey everyone! I've got great news from 3d.sk - they've started uploading hair scans in Gaussian Splatting format! In this video, I'm breaking down what this technology is and how it's changing the game for creating 3D hair references.
We'll take a look at the new models, discuss the pros and cons of Gaussian Splatting compared to traditional 3D scans and photos, and talk about how combining these three reference types gives us artists the complete picture to work from.
