Hi Ant. Sounds like you're trying to build something pretty cool! I've been noodling this one with Mike Enders and we're not sure you can get the effect you're looking for with motion paths since they aren't 3D. Mike shared with me the attached example he created for a DevLearn session showing how you can get a 2D continuous rotation effect—although I'm not sure that's what you're looking for.
I also found a previous discussion highlighting some ideas for achieving a 3D rotation effect. Some of the ideas involved using PPT to animate the effect, while other folks suggested using Javascript.
Keep us posted on what solution(s) you ultimately employ to bring your design to life.
