I found a 3D artist named Joazzz2 on deviantart.com
http://joazzz2.deviantart.com/. I asked if he had any models he could share to the Elite mod. Here is his reply:
i suppose the Fellblade tank that i put together might work since it's partially based on the DoW2 Baneblade model and isn't too detailed geometry-wise.
the Contemptor too, if someone were to replace the parts taken from the Space Marine game models - the head, the engine bits and the joints - with the DoW2 equivalents's components
i think i'll convert them both for DoW2 use after i'm done with all the vehicles in my project
Here is one of the models he mentioned:

That would be amazing.
But i don't know if the team would put them in the game.
I guess the Contemptor could be a replacement for the Dark Age of Technology, and the Fellblade could replace the Chaos Land Raider since it doesn't act as a transport and reinforcement point, if they find a way to balance that thing.

Yeah I think you are right, but it's nice to have them available. He also has some iron hands models on his page, maybe they can be converted to DOW2 models.

It's really nice and very, very pretty, some excellent work.
Buuuut...
Ever the doomsayer, it's really nice to have these models, but remember, if they don't fit with the balance, they'll not see the light of day. Some substitutions can be made, but a Fellblade? Looks delightful, but Space Marines don't have that kind fo thing in DoW II... :/

Yep I agree, but it was nice of him to share what he's got.

Those models are gorgeous, but there is one small problem: Polycount.
At a glance, they all look much more detailed than the average DOW2 model, and would thus look out of place.

Oh yes, he admitted this to me himself.

besides, people can put them in whatever mod they want once i've released them for GMod and Source Filmmaker use, but i'm not giving them out for those purposes myself.

For such detailed awesomeness, I'd be perfectly fine with the disparity between normal DoWII and this.
Also, about the tank, would it be a terrible idea to consider replacing the LRC with it? Just to make GK even more not-SM.
