I've seen a Shape3D for a torus floating around on the net.  You could
trivially make that into an elliptical torus by applying a differential
scale transform.

Have fun

Subject:        [JAVA3D] Drawing ellipses in Java3D

Hi.
I am an aerospace student at RMIT University(Australia). I am trying to draw
the orbital path of an asteroid on the Canvas3D object. I have noticed that
the Java2D API has classes for elliptical objects, but Java3D hasn't. is
there any way that an ellipse can be drawn in a Java3D canvas?

thanks,
EK
