Idk the name of the wire so it is hard to Google it.
What is the wire type that had the 3d lines in them? I see many people use them when they make custom models.

Guitar and bass guitar strings.
Pop into your local music shop and ask them to put any broken ones aside for you over a few weeks.

Piano strings can also be useful too for adding little details to models. I used 0.38mm piano string and really thin brass sheet to make a functioning small scale hinge shown below.

Bear in mind that if you do go the guitar string option, you will need TWO pairs of small pliers to bend it to shape (it's the easiest way).
When bending curves, do a little at a time (and it also depends on whether they are steel wound or bronze wound strings.).
