Vertex modeling? Is it like you place the points before you model it and then connect the vertices with edges? Or am I misunderstanding here?

It depends on the object that I'm modeling, if I'm modeling something like an axe, which is very cylindrical, I prefer Cylinder modeling, if I model something like a gun I generally use box modeling, and if I model characters ( <3 Character modeling ) I use polygonal modeling since it just gives me much more control over how the mesh's edge flow is going.

It really depends on what I'm trying to do.

If the object can be made from a lathe, I definitely start with vertex modeling and just apply a lathe modifier (for example, a push pin). If I'm using a reference photo, I might also use vertex modeling here as well.

Box modeling I use mainly for characters, organics, and some buildings.

Plane extrusion is a method I just found I'm not half that bad with. I created a whole complex of buildings by just using one reference image and one plane. I might make a tutorial on this method soon.

He's sort of right Quik. I think the topic was good and interesting, but you could have put a much better title.
