| Taken from Rich's
auction listing description I was just sitting there
asking myself- "How can I take an Aurora
Prehistoric scenes model to the next
level"?" How can I set mine
apart"? And then it hit me,
Electronics! But How?
After some serious planning, I came up
with this- A vintage 1970's Aurora Prehistoric
scenes Cave, with a lighted firepit! Not just a
steady glow firepit, but a flickering,dancing,
shadow casting, eerie looking firepit for the
Cave. The Electronic 9 volt circuit board
drives 2 flickering LED's that light for
thousands of hours. The board was professionally
designed and built, so no worries there. I had to
modify the floor of the cave for the circuit to
fit and the firepit flame was custom made out of
acylics to diffuse the light. The battery is out
of sight behind the cave wall when displayed.
There are airbrushed, drybrushed,
stained and washed elements of this spectacular
model. Check out the paintings of the animals on
the Cave wall!
