I was not intending on removing what's there (d-wall) . Clearance would be a problem for a full half circle so I'm going for something less - sorry that did not come across in my original post. I was thinking of arches that start on the ends and meet near the middle.
Procon - the segmented arch bead looks like a probable match. I'll have to take a look.
What about the transition from the arch bullnose bead to the existing bullnose bead. Do I demo what's there and replace with a single strip (floor to arch to floor) or can I mud the transition enough to look good and not crack over time? I'm kinda lame in the sheetrock finishing dept. Great tips on using 1/4". I've walked through construction sites and seen them use that and/or 1/2" scored every couple inches.

If you are not changing or removing the headers (wood over the openings, don't worry about the structure. If you want to change the opening, post some pics of what the framing looks like above the walls. (if you have some)
