exterior deck-how to DIY a ceiling ?

So I did an internet search and found companies that will install an under deck . Looks great but also looks expensive . So that got my DIY brain churning . I found local to me someone selling fiberglass panels 3 ' x 7 ' for a buck apiece so that is a cheap way to go for the ceiling material . But how do you slant the ceiling for water runoff ? Obviously you have to attach something to the bottom of the deck joists but what ? Do you just rip a 2x at a taper lengthwise ? Basically making a long tapered wedge ? I have two sections of deck that are about 20 ' wide and project out from the house about 16 ' , those two areas would be great for storing bulk items if I can get the water to stop dripping in those areas . Any ideas or pics would be helpful .
