To draw 3D arrows, the following packages are worth looking at:

. Harry Calkins' *MyGraphics`Arrow3D`*

     http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/TechNotes/4117/

. David Park's *Presentations* package (for v6 and above)
or *DrawGraphics* (for v5.2 and below)

     http://home.comcast.net/~djmpark/Mathematica.html

Note that David Park's packages are doing much more than just drawing 3D 
arrows! They define a simple yet powerful paradigm for drawing and 
plotting with Mathematica.
