Here I had to cut into the siding to fit the awning frame solidly in place, as well as to fit the copper sheet metal roof flashing up under the siding, so it is sealed from the rain.  
Here you can see the sag of the roof panels. When I install the 5/4x6 fascia boards on top of the 2x4s, it will push up the roof at the lower edge.  

Here is the back half of the tongue-and-groove soffit going on after I stapled on the 30lb roofing felt under the roof frame.

To the left shows most of the soffit in place. Below shows the first layer of roof complete with primer coat, and attached fascia boards, which are pushing up the roof edge.

Seen left is the second layer of roof panels installed.  The drip edge has also been installed here.

Below shows the Water & Ice Shield I stick to the roof surface as an underlayment for the copper, which ensures the screws will not be touching the copper.

Here is the copper sheet metal installed to seal the roof from the weather.

 

I decided to make a raised edge metal which would give the roof a little more dynamic look.
Here is the back side of the house with all of the gutters installed.
