  1. In the 'Define Material' box, set the glass to transparent/crown glass (in the properties tab), then darken the glass a bit in the material color section of the pattern tab (try various shades of grey). Also, be sure there are no interior lights turned on and set the interior ambient to zero.

I've gotten most of it complete without issue but, despite referring to the tutorials in the Knowledge base, I'm struggling to get the flared eaves right. I've done a few curved roof's before but not one like this so any help would be appreciated. A slimmed down plan is attached
