cfg,

I believe you should be ignoring the bottom of the thick green line and using only the top of that line. That would bring the three curves closer into agreement as well.

The goal should be a compound curvature, with no discontinuities in the first or second derivatives ("smooth"). If BZP's green tracing joined multiple splines (or worse, lines) with verticies, that would explain why it "looks off".
