A little unusual perhaps, but I am in need of the Duplo Candle with Yellow Flame.

I have some sort of mockup for the candle itself (just a cylinder and a torus), but the flame of course is a complex form.

Does anyone have an idea of how to mock-up the flame or make it?
Perhaps there is a way to do it quick and dirty?
It would just be for the looks of the image I am making. No hight quality or precise part is needed atm.
Just the form of the flame will do. No need for the hole on top.

A rough sketch for the flame... far from perfect, but...

OK, this seems good enough for me for now. Thanks!

This part is one of my daughter's favorite Duplo part.
I'd like to complete it in the LDraw library.
Could you upload the mock-up cylinder?

Sure, see attachments.
Please note that this a mock-up with capital M. No details, like the rectangular cut in the shaft of the candle.
The part does not have any snap info or whatsoever.
Neither does the flame have any details like the hole at the top.

I looked at Unity parts... I found the candle stick, but couldn't locate the flame

OK, so can we combine the stick and your flame? ;-)

I guess we could... but the stick is very lo-poly, imho good only for overal shape. Here attached.
