1/35 scale SU-85 made by Dragon , Tamiya . Dragon also makes a SU-100 in the same kit...buy the Dragon SU-85M kit & you get the option to build the SU-100..contains 3 barrels.. 1 metal x 85mm , 1 plastic 85 mm & 1 x 100mm plastic barrel. Dragon is far superior to all kits. Tamiya also make a SU-100, SU-122
Revell also make a SU-100
Revell also make a SU-100

Yes,I did mention that Tamiya kit in my above post,even a couple of links to get it,but Dragon 6415 seems to be scarce at the moment.

Tamiya make the only SU-85 kit. It is decades old and the hull proportions are off, but it easy to build, results in a nice model and is the only game in town.
The Dragon kit is for the SU-85M, a different vehicle based on the SU-100. Everything forward of the engine deck is different from the SU-85.
