question from a first timer

I am just getting started in paper modeling and want to try my hand at all of it, "planes, vehicles both military and civilian, robots and scifi". My first love however is war planes.
I have looked on you tube and followed some tutorials but they don't always go into specifics of the build. they assume you have done it before.

My question is I notice that in the body of the plane as well as in the wing you seem to use cardboard or some thick card stock for the ribs and bulkheads. This material is thicker than the normal 65 lb or even the 110 lb paper stock. What material do you use?

Also, some seam to use wooden dowels or skewers in the build and some do not. Is this necessary and if so what is most comenly used?

I have also seen Styrofoam or another material in the wings leading eadge and in the fuselage. Again, is this necessary and what do you use exactly.

thanks for all the help
