Use the two verts that get created on the back of the house (shown circled in green by poopy), select them on each end of the roof and use the move tool to pul them upwards. the you need to extrude the 'eves' of the roof to the side. then add a vertical cut so you can have a small flat area to extrude up again for that top spine bit that runs along the top of the roof

Here ya go...

1. select these polys...

2. extrude a bit...

3. select these edges...

4. use the small grey square next to the 'connect' button and increase the value to something close to 4 like so...

5. go to the side view and draw a circle spline as a guideline...

6. pull the newly created vertices up to meet the circle...



sorted.

good work grotey.

For future reference, you can draw a circle by selecting the 2nd tab in the create panel,(where u make boxes and what not) It is shapes, and there are splines, rectangles, CIRCLES, and all those goodies.

Nice for a first model, but don't stop there.
Your door is the same height as the first floor, and door knob is at the same height as windows. Thats weird, scale down the door like its shown on reference. The windows on that side are also too big.
