Default paint or film covering

Thanks you guys for the feedback.
So from this i take it that open framed models are generally covered from
individual color pieces of film and then shrunk with heat.do you
make up paper templates as you apply each piece?
My bit of knowlege comes from spraying cars with 2 pack paint,
this i could apply in thin coats.My main worry with this is the
weight and the movement of the film causing the paint to flake.
I see so many well finished planes on the web yet i have found
little on tecniques any advice is welcome.
