THere is nothing special to do to make a OrientedShape3D object always
face the viewer. This magic happens at runtime.
So you create an OrientedShape3D and add the geometry(ies) and
appearance
as needed. Take a look at the example that comes with the JDK.
There is a detailed discussion and example in the latest (soon to be
released) version of the tutorial. Keep an eye on the collateral
page for it: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/3d/collateral
Also, there are a couple of known bugs related to OrientedShape3D.
These should be fixed in the next release (1.2.1_02) of the API.
