(...) The curve certainly looks great now (to me, at least)! However, the surface paint of the curve still looks to be floating somehow below the surface (take a close look at the way both LDLITE and LDRAW render the edges of the baseplate), and (...) (26 years ago, 7-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I have no authority over anyone like Terry and Steve do, but I must say that the curve is much better on this piece although there are quite a few studs missing. You might want to fix that or else it will never make it past anyone's approval :) Ryan (...) (26 years ago, 7-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
