Yes, I never understood why this tank wasn't put into production and 122mm used for ISU only.

There were 2 main reasons: 1 the 100mm armor-piercing projectile was not mass-produced; 2 the high-explosive 122 mm projectile of the D-25 cannon was better

That kit looks really cool. So how would one go about purchasing one of those kits?

I think you make the best SU-152 conversion out there. If I hadn't already built my SU-152 I would definitely be looking at getting one from you. I like that you made your own hinged cover for the gun out of brass. I did the same for my SU-152 conversion. It was a royal pain for me to make, but it looks much better and closer to a sheet metal look.

When the ISU-152 conversions are ready....now that's something I would be interested in...

Thanks.
Isu-152 is being done now. I plan to show it at the end of December. For this set you will need the top part from JS-2 Taigen

It's hard to do it the first time. Now I have made a drawing of the expanded part. Printed on self-adhesive paper. I glue it to a 0.2 mm thick copper sheet. I cut it out with nail scissors. I ordered the loops on Alibaba
