This is a resin kit I got a few months ago.







I used a LED flashlight to light it.

I have several of those flashlights; they turn and off by pushing in the rubber end. Did you devise a switch on the side?

Yes, the switch on the side is a radioshack pushbutton switch.
I ripped the flashlight switch apart and soldered in wires to connect it to the flashlight.
It lights up with the side button.
