The recent work of Goncharov-Shen gives a good generalization of the hive model for any reductive group $ G$. They show that $n$-fold tensor product multiplicities for $ G $ are counted by positive tropical integral points of the space $ G^vee setminus ( G^vee / N)^n $. When $ G = GL_m$ and $n = 3$, this gives the Hive model. When $ G = GL_m $ and $ n = 4 $, this gives the octahedron recurrence.
Unfortunately, outside of type $ A$, it is hard to give a simple description of their set of positive tropical points. To do so requires some choices, and once one makes these choices, you end up with one of the Berenstein-Zelevinsky models which Allen mentioned.
