This is still WIP but i wanted to say thanks to anyone who worked on this filter, i used the anisotropic version

Original render looks like this and i removed the sphere for the Kuwahara filter version

I have a question. Do we have legacy Kuwahara filter with box capturing, or enhanced modern variand by Gueseppe Papari with disk/round capturing and sectors?
This is proper paper, i believe:

And here an idea to replace Gaussian function to polynomial

Anisotropic Kuwahara: https://www.umsl.edu/~kangh/Papers/kang-tpcg2010.pdf

Both are implemented, anisotropic is the enhanced version you’re referring to.
