I painted a hollow core door as a barn/shed door. I live in a doublewide and the walls will not support a real barn door. I am not a painter but I thought I would give it a try, it's only paint.
Add shading along lines and areas where the dust would collect, where dirt would collect from hands and feet kicking the bottom of the door.
Draw boards with a sharpie and paint in shadows and aging dirt. I then added a wash of white to add highlights and a dry brush of tan to create wood veins and knots.
