Quote - Would it be possible to script these to wrap around another figure body part or prop, e.g. to form a spiral band of braids up the length of V4's arm? If that makes sense...?

the new zb4r4 insert brush will do that. just create the shape you need repeated and draw where you want it to go. you can even cap it with different shapes on both ends if thats what you want. No need to write a script.
