I had to make some of the 3D models, but that is kind of fun, actually. I have not adapted this to his latest Eagle3D, yet. I generate a view with all the components in place. In my case this means overlapping components. The view is a program for PovRay in the form of macros. I then edit the resulting PovRay file such that I can turn on and off different components, and can choose a viewpoint. This is really good for manuals, as you can show close-ups of parts of the board. I have even added arrows, etc to illustrate a point.
