If you're going to do it once, don't choose 45x45. It's too thin, and the whole wall will flex a lot and risk cracks in the surface. Use at least 45x70.
To avoid plastering, you can use 120cm wide and cut off the sides of the drywall so they are straight and 13mm (and not around 9-10mm). Then directly use renovation wallpaper on top which you set perfectly edge to edge, and then paint with a quality paint that covers well. However, renovation wallpaper is quite expensive and probably more work than just plastering the damn thing and avoiding having to specially cut the drywall.
