Oh, and don't feel you have to be limited to starting with a "cube" primitive when you start modeling. Sometimes the sheer shape of a primitive will just inspire your imagination and you'll do some "stream of conciousness" modeling, extruding here, insetting there. You'll look at what you just created and you'll go "Dude, whoa, no way!"(or something to that effect)lol. Seriously though, only one of the models I just previewed started with a "cube". One started life as an octotoad and two started out as octohedrons.:-)
