Kicking the tires with Gaussian Splats

posted: Dec. 13, 2025, 10:50 p.m.

So I have been running some Gaussian Splat tests and with them now being implemented in Nuke 17 a lot of artists are asking for test files.

As I make them I will post them here. I am still experimienting with workflows so some of these splats might be a little bit "dirty". Since they are for users learnign the tools I see this honestly as a bit of plus as learning to cleanup the splats seems like an essential part of the workflow!

That said I have been developing better workflwos for splats and I will post both the workflows as I learn them and better splats. So keep coming back to this post as I update it!

This test was made with Jawset Postshot but I will also be trying some open source solutions. Feel free to use, mix or play around with these files but please credit me. All the .ply files ar e Creative Commons: gaussian splat tests © 2025 by Daniel Mark Miller is licensed under CC BY 4.0
