Feb 6th, 2016: Classy Spackle
Drywall is heavy, dirty, nasty work, I hate doing it. But it's a lot faster and easier than plaster, plus it's pretty straight forward.
The artist is the taper, he's the guy that hides all the fasteners, smoothes the corners, and makes the surface ready for the finish of your choice. The choices were pretty much paint, wallpaper, or a kid with a crayon, but now you can chose spackle. However, if you choose spackle I would recommend letting Bernie Mitchell do it. Bernie's a drywall contractor with an extra skill, sculpting 3-D murals with spackle. He also has an artist's eye and understanding of how lighting makes things pop. You might be able to hire him because Sistine Chapels are few and far between. But if you can't, he has a bunch of tutorial videos to show how to do it. You could have Han Solo on your wall. I recommend seeing the videos at his site but if you don't want to click here's a sample. Oh, and if you screw it up, just scrape it off and start over.

Wow. I started out looking up the differences between spackle/Polyfilla and plaster, but that video left me in awe.
Not to be a wet blanket, but I wonder how it cleans (especially since he does fireplace work)? You wouldn't want to paint or coat that surface with anything much, I don't imagine. I can't find anything about that online.

Yes, I thought about dust also. But I guess if you can afford that stuff, you tell the upstairs maid, to tell the downstairs maid, to tell the butler, to tell the housekeeper to handle it.

You could probably just seal it with a clear coat, sprayed on.

I think you can even get flat clear. So it don't shine.

That would seal the surface against stains and deep dirt, but still be a bitch to keep clean.
