Is it possible to get complex 3D curves on a surface using solids?

Not by using vanilla autocad only.
If you can generate the shape as a surface mesh you can use M2S.lsp (google search will find it) to create a solid from the mesh.

Have a look here (http://www.3dfaq.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2058&c=3)

(I know this a link to a non-augi forum, but I am sure the moddies will let it slide) :Oops:

It's something I did back in April when I was still on Vanilla 2k5. I used Mesh-2-Solid to model a squashed pipe.

As far as I am concerned (aware) there is nothing wrong with that, if it helps answer the question... it helps answer the question...

Excellent. Thanks all!

Now I need time to play with this.
