Complex Roof - any ideas here?

[NP---MD]

Hello, 

I'm fairly new to building roofs, just learnt in the last few days. 

I'm using the roof tool, the join/unjoin roof tool and the dormer opening tool to do most of it. I've looked through a load of youtube tutorials and things are working on the whole okay. 

I now have challenge that I'm not sure the combo of roof tools revit has can achieve. I may just need to create a custom family. But, before I cave, can I just ask any guru's out there if they have any smart ideas on how this could be achieved in the project?

Everything vertical is a Wall.  Just change the Material to match the Roof and join the two Geometries together using the Join Geometry Tool. 

....Attach Base of Wall to Roof using the Attach Top/Base Tool.

Great! 
and, did you manage to cut the main roofs with the dormer ? I was struggling with that part in particular.

What dormer? I have no idea what's under the hood.  But sure; you can cut openings.

FYI: There's some guys hanging around now.  Couple of them are in the house.  Dunno how. I didn't model any doors.
