Detailed Tamiya 35093 1/35 SU-122 Scale Model

The Tamiya 35093 represents the SU-122, a Soviet self-propelled gun mounted on the T34 chassis and armed with a 122mm howitzer. It was notable in engagements against German Panther and Tiger tanks and saw action during the Battle of Kursk.

Scene Building and Historical Pairings

The SU-122 is well suited to dioramas alongside Tamiya SU-85 kits and Soviet infantry figures, enabling collectors to stage convincing World War II scenarios with period-correct vehicles.

Applying subtle washes, dry brushing and pigment work will bring out the cast textures and welded joins. Moderate weathering creates a realistic operational look.
Yes, the included crewman works well in action poses or peering from an open hatch and matches the 1/35 scale of the vehicle for diorama use.
You can mix 1/35 items from different makers, but check scale and detail levels first to ensure a consistent look across your display.
