The 2nd most important tool here - rolling aluminum scaffolding. Made it easy to climb on and off of the roof without fear of falling. Also it provided easy access to the upper sides and roof. Maybe you can find these at drywall supply places?
Note the packing material wrapped around the coach-facing parts of the scaffolding to protect the paint.
