Slope neck vs. sloping roof?

[sockerollon]

Hello

I have seen that there are plenty of threads that deal with the subject. But none seem to answer the question in the title. So can you really make it look nice with swanhalls against a slanted roof?

All tips and advice are gratefully received!

The connection to the ceiling is relatively easy to achieve, slightly depending on the roof angle, but the miters in the lower corners I have never seen a really good solution for because it changes direction in two planes, making it difficult.

If one can find a list with a proportionately larger radius, it's possible to trick the eye. However, it might be difficult with the standard assortment available from suppliers. It would require a planing mill to fix it.

Yes, I thought so. I will make some attempts using some trim and latex. Maybe it's possible to build something up behind the actual swan neck if you tweak it a bit?

We have a mansard roof on our house, and during the renovation of one of the rooms, I puzzled over this. Eventually, I planed one side on the back at the same or slightly larger angle as the wall. This made the lower part of the swan neck molding fit closely to the wall, eliminating the need to fill in with latex or similar.

Exactly what I meant - easier to describe with a picture.
