How do you guys come up with ideas of what to create in Hammer? I'm trying to think of something I can make, but all I've gotten is an indoor pool, and a house, but that already has a WIP thread. (Which by the way I can't wait for the release)
And if I don't think of anything, what would you guys want to see in a map?
I'd recommend this thread, it's more on reference images, but some of those pictures may inspire you :3:

You ideally need a purpose. I dont find much point in making something unless it is to fit a particular use. Just think about what you like to do most on GMOD and work something up for that.

There's something called practice and this section isn't only for GMod mapping.

I think you'll find that a lot of people, myself included, often get a random idea that may look good in a map, or even just a vague theme idea, and make a map with no particular purpose such as a lone house or whatever. It's good to break up big mapping projects so you don't get bored, and it's also good practice, especially if you try new things.
