another option is to use veneer which you can cut into strips with a knife. some veneers are paper or cloth backed.

Do you see a difference between rotary cut and plane cut veneer? I think that rotary cut may curl/cup.

personally, i never used veneer i know model builders who have but i do not have any first hand experience. To explore the possible use of veneers i would suggest researching the art of marquetry.
