be careful though as many models that are on free sites are illegally uploaded from copyrighted sources such as games and even DAZ amd may cause problems depending on your usage.

You'll have to scroll all the way down to make pictures appear, and once you have done that, it's best to save it, in case something happens to the Internet Archive itself.

Mmm. Not what I was hoping for. I download Sketchfab models directly into blender using their plugin. I find the look is far superior to what I can get by trying to recreate the Sketchfab preview look using an image dump, as found when downloading through the web page. The trouble is, the scene hierarchy is always a mess and I don't know enough about Blender to fuse everything into a game-ready or Daz-ready prop.

Jay Versluis has a series of videos on the subject, that could be useful to you:

Depending on what you want to do, you may not need to watch them all.
