Shed on the cheap.

I built a gigantic carport for my driveway and used heavy gauge sheet metal for the majority of the roof. Later I added an addition to the carport and decided to use heavy Vinyl (or maybe it was Asphalt).

Either way it saved lots of money, is pretty heavy duty and has held up for many years so far. Also if you get something that is more transparent it will let some light into the rooms unless you plan to electrify it?? I bought the roofing at Lowes.
I thought about using something like you're saying but I don't know if the wife will like the look. She will most likely want the same style and color of shingles that are on the house. I will give it a whirl and run it by her.
