Useful Garry's Mod Stuff

Due to the rather underlying competitive nature of the Garry's Mod scenebuilding scene, I've always had a hard time finding decent models on the workshop for my own builds that can actually stand a leg to what proper scenebuilders put out.

While this situation has improved over the years, especially with the addition of Softlamps and the removal of the Facepunch Forum (moving a lot of the packs onto the workshop) it still could leave something to be desired.

Through my various searches to find properly good scenebuilding models, I have found some wonderful depositories of both models & tutorials that I haven't seen passed around or talked about much among the wider crowd.

I personally feel the practice of gatekeeping this shit is one of the worst things anyone could possibly do in terms of getting new creative minds into the hobby.

Please make sure to spread the word about these depositories to those who want to have access to high quality models/tutorials!
