Hello guys, I am quite new to the product, (revit) and I have a student licence ( I am a student as well).

The question is:

Where can I find a serious enough Materials Library as well as with new model patterns ?  For example, I have to make a roof with a metal finish, with an ondulated profile or pattern (for a house) ... don't know how this works yet, applyed to roofs. 

Please help me... --Educational interest---

A material library SHOULD have come with the software, and it's pretty substantial.  There are shingles, and standing seam metal images. 

But... if you want to make your own images--which is actually pretty satisfying, you can just take an image and put it into photoshop.  With a little bit of copy/mirroring, you can make a seamless repeating square of custom material, and apply that in revit.
