The windscreen and panel are stickered, not printed, so using plain parts is reasonable.
Meanwhile, string continues to be the major holdup for a lot of models to be complete…
I've thought before about what kind of toolkit might help with that. Would it be enough just to have a library of helper/donor parts for common string configurations (like a pre-made reel, or reel segments)?
Or does it need to be something more dynamic/interactive? For example, a scripted tool that automatically winds a certain length of string around a reel, adds a knotted loop to carry a hook, etc.?
There is still also the ongoing question of which donor parts, exactly, make the best representation of strings.
