Amazing source of free models - repost?

 

So I've been thinking about making some buildings but i had no inspiration .

so instead i turn to the internet, couldn't find anything for a while and then i thought i will see about the google maps models, if i could somehow download and adapt..

checked the licence and :

"Rights granted to other end users of the Services.

basically making them public domain. there is lots of shit in there, plants, vehicles, loads of buildings etc..

just thought i might bring it to people's attention.

now of course the models need work, but that's the nature of it.. easier than starting from scratch.

enjoy.
