If anyone could recommend a pack of models and/or scenes/animations/items, and where to get it, I'd be grateful.
If you have the full FR3.5 version you should pretty much have all of that already. The vast majority of the 91gb in that version is mods including all of that.
For models one of the best parts of Honey Select is the ability to easily make your own characters. I would highly recommend starting with character creation and making sure that the characters in your game are unique by doing so. FR3.5 also claims to have 460 characters preinstalled if you do want to use some for reference or something. There is also a few places people share cards. One of the main ones is

Once you get a feel for studioneo you'll find there are plenty of animations and items to use already installed. If you want to get more advanced in making a game you might want to make custom animations but I don't have a link for that. Start with the basics because that's definitely much more work. You can also download some custom scenes to check out from the discord in the scene sharing channel. There is also a mod sharing channel there too.
