The washout may be caused by a too low / nonexistent absorption in the
media. In 90% of cases, you have to use some absorption along with emission.
The candles look good, but I guess without translucency... Ah well, I will

example, but that's MAX.

BTW, your dragon would deserve a name by now, don't you think? :)
