I am new to revit and have been teaching myself how to do everything so far. I am working on modeling a building for my company and I have reached a roadblock. I am trying to create an arched exterior glass glazing with mullions on different radials. I also am trying to figure out how to do the slop on the facade of the building.
The attached jpg is the best way for me to explain what i am attempting.

you are not going to be able to use the traditional curtainwall functions to create that. i suggest using the conceptual massing tools or perhaps the family editor.

I would do all of the vertical, horizontal and perimeter mullions using the curtainwall. One large panel in the upper area. Then add an in-place family for the radial mullions.

Thank you both for your suggestions!
I have the elevation of this as a dwg file. is there any way I am able to import that in and draw from that? Perhaps transform it into a inplace family?

You could place your curtainwall, then in elevation, import your elevation so you could locate your mullions.
Yes, you could also use this import to create an in-place family.

NOTE: My advice above is only for the flat, vertical planes. I looked again at your image and the sloped glazing areas will probably have to be seperate modeled in place elements.
