Gotta say, I really agree with him. Sure, the new design doesn't work as well as a cutesy "mascot" type character, but it works a lot better as a character in a dramatic sci-fi setting.
A character design like that makes me ask questions about why she looks the way she does, and I do think that works well for the character and makes her stand out.
I've made over 10 seitan experiments now, with plenty producing perfectly edible results. However, what I've noticed is that the flexible, bendy texture found in real meat is really lacking! My seitan's either gummy and "stiff", or wet and spongy in some cases.
Is there a way to give seitan a more flexy, bendy texture that's a bit more similar to meat?
I'd like to experiment with different sounding strings, and flatwounds sound like an interesting alternative to roundwound. Yet... do they actually exist as sets made for acoustic western style guitar?
