Ah,
yep that's another model with some body elevation....the one I've put here is a simpler model...
I'll see if I still got this one also...

EDIT:
I have overwritten the above file.
But since you want to play around with it, it fairly easy done.
In 3dsmax terms just use an FFD box to add the curvature
..and a turbosmooth ofcourse....

succes!

I am not a technical drafter, but started to use 3ds max, when I had to make an animation for a presentation about how particles-flow-into-fluids under the influence of a magnetic field. Very fundamental, and perhaps un-inspiring for a lot of people, but hey, it was my job at the time.
After that, I liked modelling very much and did a few final-year projects for friends of mine who were on the design academy here in Eindhoven.
They all made it, but don't tell anybody because its fraude

Nowadays I mostly use it to get an idea or inispiration what instrument to create from a calabas.
My balcony is full of calabases again and they have to dry so that next year I am able to create some instruments.
Something like this:
