Evil Seed is a 6 segment cheese puzzle so it's basically a Rubik's UFO shape variant.
If you disassemble a UFO you will see 6 hidden pieces inside like the one circled in red

So I made holes on the surface on the puzzle to expose 3 of the hidden pieces and sticker them. This way the puzzle mimics the aesthetics of Multi Cube and Multi Dodecahedron that are so popular at the moment. The shape I have discovered myself and used it to make my very first puzzle - the Seed http://twistypuzzles.com/cgi-bin/puzzle.cgi?pkey=5932

This time it's SLS printed and the stickers ware cut by a machine. One of the red stickers shrunk when heating it so I'm never heating stickers again.
Enjoy the pictures :)

Absolutely gorgeous! I'm surprised that you found a way to get it to stick in a stand though :D

The jumbling style move looked interesting. This seems like an interesting solve. Like this one better than his predecessor.

I found out if you use every move available the solve is easy and you can use help from Rubik's UFO tutorials, but if you retain the seed shape the solve becomes completely different. New parity arises and fixing the centers is no trivial task
