I have a handful of hoppers that need covers to suit the needs of my layout as they will be delivering grain and hops to a brewery. I didnt want to use boxcars for this. Does anyone sell just the covers that I can paint to match? If not anyone made covers from scratch and willing to post a tutorial?

Hopper car covers

Assuming you are dealing with HO scale, Sunshine Models produced a mini kit for ATSF cars and McKean produced a more modern cover designed to fit a 100 ton three bay hopper.
