Doesn't the Java3D require a seperate runtime to be installed on each client to work? Or have I got it wrong? I need to be able to do this with just standard JRE, which is why am trying to do everything manually. Thanks!

The JRE doesn't contain any methods for texture mapping, only image blitting. If you can't use OpenGL (JOGL or LWJGL), you need to implement it yourself. Implementing fast perspective correct texture mapping is not an easy task though. Search Google for some example code.
