more often than not, recolors are the way to start with shp editing, it teaches you a bit of how shps work, and you'll need this skill once you gain the ability to make brand-new shps

once you've recolored a few shps, you should start learning 3d, because this is the way to make animated shps( sidenote : IVI manages to create buildings without any rendering, but with pure photoshop ), once you've gaine d the ability to model things, you need to render them out into a set of images which can be converted into a shp.

so, first, recolors, then, learn 3d, OR, learn to photoshop in 3d perspective
