Rio Grande Coal Hopper Repaint

Was wondering if anyone was interested in repainting one of greatnortherners 3 bay coal hoppers from his classic hopper pack from T&D. Rio Grande used 4 bay coal hoppers but at this point in time we do not have one available yet so a 3 bay will be a good placeholder. (possibly even some repaints with a UP patch on them) Slight weathering and fading would be appreciated if anyone wants to tackle this repaint, thanks!

Here are some quick and simple reskins. The three variations are based on pictures posted on RailPhotos.com. What do you think?

Im shure I will, these will be perfect behind the Rio Grande SD40T-2's that we have in the file library, and on Tennessee Pass!

I don't like photo reskins so that's why I asked for these, plus these are more than just 1 number.
