      I see all these amazing models here and was wondering are there any better tutorials on drawing curves? I have alot of problems drawing the simplest curves! As seen in the picture this simple little curve drove me crazy to get it like I wanted!

      Thanks Kurt

          Something like French Curves or "S" curves like the one shown in the first picture. I have trouble getting them smooth, they always seem bumpy or not a uniform transition from one point to the next. The example below is just a random pic from the web but it's shows what I have so much trouble with. I can randomly draw curves like these but when it comes to a drawing one with specific dimensions I run into issues!

            Sounds like you need Bezier Spline
