Seeing how creative some users are rendering their candle scenes, I decided to put something together for Superfly. I grouped 3-types of candles together, a tealight, a votive, and a pillar, on a desktop. I fashioned an aluminum cup out of an open-end pipe primitive and inserted the tealight candle into it. Then all the original shaders were converted to Cycles PBR. This included the self-illuminating flames. To help with the candlelight, I added the accompanying point lights, changed them for Blackbody emission, and scaled each to their corresponding flame. An additional low-intensity mesh area light was placed above the scene as a fill light. The Faerie is Miki 4.
The flames are really impressive, especially with the dark area in their base center, and the overall is splendid.
