Hi,
You can add the 3 characteristics in the same time for the product ; then create all your variants in one shot (you can provide several values during the "add variants").
You can also select several variants and use the "duplicate" button to perform a copy of the variant (and several several values for one characteristic).
Otherwise, there is still the import system (using CSV) if you want to create a large number of variants.
