It is possible to render to a texture and grab that back, but I don't 
think you could do that in PyGame without creating an OpenGL display 
first. I don't think it would be pracitcal to render 3D models and blit 
them in 2D. Happy to be proven wrong though.

Although maybe it could be done with a software based OpenGL 
implementation, like Mesa3D. :-/
