3D models for older furniture etc
HI,

I am trying to recreate a model of my grandparents' old house.
I was wondering if there was a place to get furnture that would have dated from
the 40s and 50s.

I am also looking for different dogs - terrier mix and boston terrier
and old yellow school bus (which my grandfather drove)

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks

Hello,
Maybe this article will interest you.
For your models, see this page for suggestions of sites with 3D models.
Hope to see here the grandparents' old house in Sweet Home 3D! Good luck!

I could not find a 1940s Yellow School bus or a bird cage - Any suggestions?

Re: 3D models for older furniture etc
I depends on how much detail you want in the model and if you are optionally willing to pay for it. Just search for "3dmodel yellow schoolbus" and you will find several sites that offer 3D models of yellow school buses.
In most cases you will have to register and most likely have to pay for a detailed model but there are some cheap and free models you can download.
Make sure you download all formats that Sweethome3D can handle because sometimes one format imports better than another.
Here's a free model and you don't have to register: https://archive3d.net/?a=download&id=3ea9cd10
You can find a birdcage there too. Search with DuckDuckGo for "bird cage site:archive3d.net".

Re: 3D models for older furniture etc
Thank you so much !!!! My late Grandfather owned school buses for quite a few years and I have pictures of different types.

And thank you for the birdcage.

One more favor - I have pictures of the 50s type of old TV - Is there a good website to find those?

Re: 3D models for older furniture etc
I am curious - I have been checking out the website that you sent me, but the pictures will not transfer. I see that the file does not match the accepted files.

Is there a way to save the files to accepted format? Sorry - very new to this

Thanks
