How can I create these 2 roofs in Revit?  Or is there too much curving going on?  I did this in Sketch Up.

If it is that shape the entire length of the building, then roof by extrusion. If it is different on the other end then you need to make a blend.

a solid blend is an in place family. you basically tell revit to create a model with different shapes on the ends and it will assume the best shape for it. check out solid blend in the help file. it's not much, but it might give you an idea of what it can do. let me know if you need any more info on it.

Yes the Roof has the same curve across the whole building.  I know how the Roof by Extrusion works, so I would need to create that curve into the walls as well? As in I would need to cut the walls to have a similar curve and then use Roof by Extrusion?  I'm sorry I'm very new to Revit, thanks for helping though.

To attach the walls to the roof. click on the wall and in the options bar above the drawing area click on 'attach' then choose 'top' and then click on the roof.  the wall will then adjust itself to the curve of the roof.  Even if you change the roof curve the wall will adjust to it automatically.
