Hi, as see the attach file, I did this "s" shape in photoshop, but I want to make this shape in real object in AC, I know AC is not good at doing such shape but is any way to make it ???

SO what is it?

YOu've drawn a thing that implies that it could be 3D, but it is a fake.

You want a curving slug with pointy ends?

That would be tricky in Archicad without scripting it in GDL.

Thing is, you just don't very often, in the call of architecture, need to model yellow excrescences.

You can try to create it in Sketch Up.
It's a free download if you don't allready have it.

Just Google it.
