The problem is the sense of volume is kind of lost, since EdgeForm[] Directive is also present. I would like to be able to render graphics with both specific colours and shading. A set of different graphics with these Directives and Options is presented together using the command Show. Maybe the Options AmbientLight and Shading have something to do with it. -------------------- I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do, but you should take a look at the Graphics Tricks available from my web site (URL below). There I explain and demonstrate most of the options and primitives that control lighting and coloring in Mathematica.
