I think that it is doable but as Fabrice points out, it depends on many things. It is more an art of how to work with low resources (in comparison to working with lower levels of programming where things are much faster) than a question of Away3D vs Papervision3D. I would go with Away, but that is a question of liking and fine tuning. You have to find a way of showing what you want with the capabilities you have. If you use good low-poly modeling, some clever programming resources and a good application framework you can do something like that. You need to think about what you ask the engine to render each frame. Where you place the camera, the way you bring stuff from external 3d design software, the way things are modeled in that software, the complexity of the materials you use and how you handle memory, amongst other things are waht you need to manage in order to achieve this. I dont know how complex your project may actually get, but this is what I´ve got to say about complex 3d projects in flash, its doable, not easy, but with a lot of brains and some of knowledge you can do it. Practically I would say: Make very good low poly 3d models, use the as3 exporter and find a way to minimize the amount of polygons you render each frame, all this of course in a good framework and a good use of flash.
