The answer really depends on what is meant by a three dimensional hexagon. The following are options for regular shapes.
1. The word polygon comes from Greek and the suffix "gon" refers to angles. If you think of a six-angled 3-d object, it would be two pyramids with their square bases joined together.
2. If you are thinking of a 3-d object with six faces, then it is a cube.
3. If you are thinking of a 3-d object each of whose faces is a hexagon, the answer is that such a figure cannot exist. The solid will "collapse" into a 2-d tessellation. The nearest you can get is the truncated icosahedron which is the shape of a soccer ball (or the C60 Buckminsterfullerene molecule). It comprises 12 regular pentagonal faces and 20 regular hexagonal faces.

What does a hexagon with three right angles look like?
It would look a bit weird, but the only way to achieve this is by curving the sides or by making a concave hexagon.
What dose a regular hexagon look like?
it has seven sides and must look like a regular hexagon
Is a hexagon a quadrilateral?
no, because a quadrlateral has 6 sides and a hexagon has 4
What does 1 regular hexagon and 6 congruent triangles look like?
pyramid
How do the techniques of tinting and shading make something appear three dimensional?
By tinting or shading it the correct way and making it look like there is another side to it
