I know that this might be possible with quadrics, but is there any way to draw a curved quad (something like half a cylinder)?

NURBS objects and Bezier patches. Semicylinders are really easy to draw manually though...it''s hardly worth the trouble to set up curved surfaces. Just think about trig...

Peace,
ZE.
