Dunno, maybe this can help though:

There is a program called Unispec, which supposedly lets you create 
Spectrum 512 animations.  It's a commercial program.  There's a player on
atari.archive called ANISPEC and a couple of animations: WALL, 3D-512 I think,
and another one.  Unispec can be bought for under $30 mail order I think.
 
There's also a program, shareware or commercial, not PD, that lets you do
3D modeling in 512 colors, but I don't remember its name.  I have a sample
output pic.  Leave me some e-mail if you're interested and I'll post it on
atari.archive.
