Thanks Alain (and everyone else) for the nice comments.

I grabbed the flame from an old hot air balloon scene from a few years back
(probably the last scene I worked on in a while). A few tweaks and it was good
enough for the lantern so was probably the easiest part of this model.

Source for the flame is below if anyone wants it.
