We covered a great deal of ground in understanding the fundamentals of 3D graphics: basic objects such as boxes and spheres, the creation of more complex objects using indexed face sets, texture maps, lights, viewpoints, animation, and interactivity.

After all, if we can create a Solar System in an introduction, we can pretty much go anywhere.
