Just a quick inquiry as to ideas for alternatives to existing GW models.
Basiclly searching for models that would be the proper size and look to represent a LRBT, A Manticore,and Chimeras.
Any ideas?

A few WW1 tanks have that typical ' LRBT' track shape. I don't have much in the way knowledge regarding military vehicles, but you could use that as a starting point maybe?
Like this one?

Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do |

Tanks/vehicles with this sort of appearance (or at least overall "feel") are basicly what I'm looking for...

There aren't any realistic scale models which reproduce the weird proportions of the GW models and maintain the clear WW1 imagery.
A 1/35 scale Bradley is a fairly close match in size for a Land Raider. You could either reconfigure the track run or just ignore it.
