Bolo, Sorry to be so late to respond. If I get you right, you are working with _fairly_ small motifs, and want a _directional_ light without too much contrast. One thing I have tried (but not often) is to use a white plastic bag over the flash head as a diffuser. Or a white cardboard strapped to the flash and pointing it slightly away from the motif. Well... just another suggestion....
Mostly I work with natural light, and rather take the long exposure times than digging the flash out of the bag...:-) Hope you find a solution that works for you.
