You have to work just like you would with real wood planks:
Stain the planks - here the paper - with heavily diluted acrylic
paint of black, brown, dark green etc , and mixes of them - the
more the better - and slice it to create the planks. The random
position with each other will give you that variety of weathered
wood. Pin washes, and filters on some spots will do the rest.
Check the post #5 at the 1st page about the random staining.
Give it a try, I 'm testing new techniques all the time.

I completely agree. Paper can look much more realistic than painted styrene. Your "wood" board on board weathered siding looks amazing. Great technique. I like how you paint random tones of the wood colors on the paper then slice and mix them up. Very effective.
