Does anyone know if painting ply-wood/board walls can come up nice? I have been told that by painting them a special way they can come up nice. Does anyone have any photos they can send me or give me a discription of how they did it?

I was looking to do the same job as you. Check out this link

http://ask.homesite.com.au/renovator/index.php/homesite_standalone/comments/painting_cedar_walls/

THIS WAS ONE OF THE COMMENTS FROM THE SITE

"If you dont want the expense of gyprocking the cedar walls and rendering the brickwork, first apply 1 coat of Zinnser Stain Sealer (available from Wattyl/Dulux Trade Centres and Bunnings), this will stop bleed stains coming through the paint and then simply paint over the wood with a good quality interior acrylic. For the brickwork use an exterior acrylic such as Wattly Solarguard or Dulux Weathershield as these are bith self priming paints which will seal the bricks and give an excellent result."
