I think the type of paper Milt is referring to is "Anaglytpa wall paper". I have done a small breakfast room and as stated, painted it looks real nice:

Lowes has plastic/vinyl "tin lookalike" panels for sale -$18-20. I am concerned that the plastic may bow if only nailed by the sides and may need to use wallboard adhesive.
From a distance they look like tin in the stores by the kitchen area.
