A couple of things to try?--(dunno if these will work)--
- Put a point light source inside the 1x1 cylinder brick atop the staff and
crank its luminosity up to (10,10,10). Then tweak that gradually downward
since it'll probably be too bright.
- Put point light sources at the very bottom of each of the flames and crank
their luminosities up to (3,3,3). Then tweak these downard as well.
- Almost looks like you're going for a "blacklight" type of effect (waycool!).
Might wanna see if you can contact Coby Bassett and see what lighting tricks
he used in this rendering:
