I don't consider myself as particularly experienced, and my memory from the
first few models I build was that covering with paper was a real pain,
especially across dihedral breaks. Even covering a flat wing with end plates
is much easier with film than paper, and handling condensor paper and really
light tissue is especially difficult until you get the knack.

The really light film requires getting used to but the thicker stuff like
the original Ultrafilm is pretty easy to handle.
