I found this toy on the web while searching for a way to ease the task of drawing 3D images.
It's pretty cool.

You can literally bring anything you can imagine, to life.

Rotate it around as you need, and add to it.

You start out by clicking in the white boxes. I numbered them in the pic below.
Starting in box 1 starts you out with the smallest circle.
Box 4 is the max size.
Just click in one of the white boxes AS CLOSE TO the left side as you can and then slowly add dots or clicks, out away from it in the direction you want to go, but still progressing from left to right.
To move your drawing around so you can look at it from a different angle, just click and drag the image.
If you start too big by using box 4, it acts like it gets tired and quits responding. :shrug:
