Method for shading 3D graphic models using 2D graphic tools, wherein the 3D graphic model is constructed of any number of polygons, according to which, each polygon is subdivided into triangles while mapping the spatial orientation and scaling of each triangle to a predetermined spatial orientation and scale, using a combination of rotation, scaling, and linear translation. Each mapped triangle is shaded using 2D linear or bi-linear coloring map shading tools and then remapped to its original spatial orientation and scale using, a corresponding combination of rotation, scale, and linear translation, such as an inverse combination.
