Not sure if you need to create close-up fly-throughs with structure/vegetation details, but 3D_Analyst/ArcScene_8.3 is *not* ideal for close-up modeling. It is better suited for terrain analysis/modeling, although you may still look into MultiPatch/texture-mapping for advanced options.
For simulation exercises involving close-up fly-throughs, I have found it best to export the scene as VRML into 3DS Max <http://www.discreet.com/>, and then render the animation with better camera/light/material/path constraints. You can even improve on freely available objects and populate your animationscape (<http://www.3dm-mc.com/>, < http://www.3dlinks.com/>), and finally, touch-up the animation in iMovie (Mac- free)/Movie_Maker (PC- free). A snazzy animation output is especially useful when you have to, say, sell a conceptual site-design to an "aspatial" clientele.
