Did you measure it standing up or lying down? Is the "other side" of the candle as good at the top?

The inside is relatively easy to model without any scan. It's the top that is challenging. The part isn't symmetric.

A mesh size with vertexes 4 LDU apart would be sufficient, 2 LDU if you want to create high res. Just for reference, a 48-sided cylinder would have the vertexes approximately 2.1 LDU apart at the outer rim (R16.6) of the candle.

I did it standing up but when i scan it properly I will do it on its side as well and a bottom scan and combine all 3.

Of the current scan both sides are roughly the same quality, I can go better though and try to fill in the gaps as much as possible even if it will get reduced down eventually.

The insides are basically hollow and you can see right to the pinhole on top when you look inside.
