What do you use for a Metal Roof (Standing Seam) Paint that looks good when Printed Out?

 

Just curious, looking for better options. ScreenShot - 2018 Board and Batten Side for Roofing.

Mike Just give it some pop... Hand draw some outside corners and a ridge cap w/no lines threw it and lightin up the pen settings on the roof paint so it seperates the siding from the roof alittle better. pdf it to see what it looks like printed and make your adjustments. Do it w/your stone below also..

Mike , I often use the board and batten siding and adjust

the horizontal percentage and the angle to align with roof edges

I have always used board and batten as well which presents a slight problem when I also use board and batten in my gables so I end up switching that to just vertical siding.

I've created a specific paint pattern to suit the Vicwest profile that we use, that adds extra lines to reflect the standing seams and the profile.

I also created a specific texture to suit as well.

This is the actual profile we use ...

If anyone's interested the Supervic textures are in a zip file on this post ... http://softplan.com/...extures/?p=5402 ...
