Hello, so I'm trying the practice exercise and made this. I used the subsurface scattering and the glossy shaders. I think it looks close enough to a candle... right? It took me awhile to find the right combination with the shader mixer.
dostovel Thank you Omar! Yeah, my mesh isn't great, lol! I was prioritizing the shaders. Shading is making a bit more sense to me now than it did before. With all the nodes, it always seemed too complicated.
