The video doesn't show the brightness of the flame flicker very well. It looks better in person.
Here's a still shot:

This project took some careful drilling to run the wires from the base (where the battery is located) through the foot to the tiny LED that is embedded in the hand.

| Running wires through the figure (the LED isn't wired up yet). |
I cut off the top of a Dwarven Forge column piece to mount the figure on and used another slice to hide the battery and flicker circuitry. A tiny switch is installed at the back of the base to turn the flame LED on and off.

The flame is made out of clear silicone caulking and painted orange, yellow, and red.
