I got this a few months ago posted in 'upper berth' wondering what it was:
After finding out what it was I searched online to see if anyone had every painted/finished one but came up empty.
I decided just to paint and weather it as I figured it would have been:
I semi dry-brushed barn red onto the body, then painted the tarpaper patches with a grey-black. The windows were done in vintage white. I used three different tamiya wood colors on the boards.
I then used Tamiya's 'panel liner' in both black and brown as a wash to go between the boards and siding and add some depth.
