I'm trying to draw a nose cone. So I trace the profile out in the side view using polyline then I try to revolve it.

Another approach could be to create an appropriately sided sphere. Then remove half and reposition the remaining half. Push its vertex around to shape required.
Theres always a lot of ways to tackle any section of a model with AC3D. I can think of five for this but I bet theres other's who know more. The learning is half the fun.
