What is the best material to:
- look not flat rigid
- be hand painted or drawn

Wine bottle foil might work, possibly a little thick.  On the other hand, aluminium baking foil might work in the small scale.  Both will accept paint with some primer.

Another option would be Parafilm M, would be easy to stretch to a thin thickness.  You can paint it, it's fiddly and needs experimenting with, if you stretch it accidentally after painting it will crack the paint.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
