Irregular shape perforated parametric panel

Hi All. I have found lots of different tutorials on how to create a parametric panel family of a perforated metal sheet similar to the link below. But I cant seem to find one that works with irregular shapes? The only ones I could find only seem to work with either as square or rectangular shapes rather than a shape like these?  I was hoping someone could point me to ward a tutorial on how to create a panel family that would work with shapes like those?

Be careful with those parametric panels. Large arrays will drain Revit performance if you keep the arrays intact after creation.
You show some shapes. But be able to get those parametric you will need to find the repeating pattern and then try to model that. Without a clear description (or example) of this repeating pattern there is not much you can do. So you might look at an example panel and the see if you can discover the repetition

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

if that is what you want , it can be achieved by using a Mass face with UV Grids infilled with a Curtain Panel Pattern Based Family, like in this screenshot:

anyway I'd better use a Mass Face with a Procedural Map for Realistic View and Rendering, not a true 3d model..

How it will look by using this method:
