If the items you're talking about are 3d models, then there is most likely a way to import it to SFM. It depends on the file type of the models you're talking about.

Models from other games have to be ripped from game with an extractor or found somewhere on the net. The model format that extractors produce or models found on the net usually aren't compatible with SFM and have to be converted using a 3D editor like Blender, Maya or 3DS Max.

These 3 3D editors have plugins available that produce Valve Model Source files, but these source files have to be compiled into Valve Binary models.

The guide that Hunter linked you to will help you with the conversion process for the various type of model formats you'll find out there.


I am in the process of writing this guide specifically for MMD type model. But, once a model is in Blender or a 3D editor of your choice, the process is pretty much the same.
