Default Hang drywall and paint

Hire the job out. Truthfully, if you've never done drywall and painting,
the best advice to save you time, disappointment, and probably money in the
long run is to hire it out to professionals.

If you are willing to be satisfied with the knowledge that you did the work
despite any flaws, delays, and the expense of probably having to buy a
couple extra sheets of drywall to cover the miscuts and breaks, an extra tub
or 2 of drywall mud as it takes you a couple extra coats to get it done and
account for the globs dropped along the way, and twice (or more) the time a
professional would take, you can find a lot of good books with tips on doing
the job. But practice is the key to getting a professional look.
