Keep it low poly you can then apply what you learn to more complex project later on. Getting defeated by complex subject matter before learning to ''drive a new software'' is just not what i advise.
I recommend playing with the matcap option and cavity option to get a better read during preview. Cavity kinda highlight edge and matcap kinda change the overall quality of the object like a quick material you don't need to assign example metallic matte or glossy(not always useful when you have many material but it more use when your planning your object where you want the material to be pretty close to what you imagine. You can also always adjust the matcap if you want to preview a new object and revert back to the older matcap and so on as you switch. Personally i don't play with them that much for me texturing is just something that require a good understand otherwise you are always tweaking parameter just to get there by mistake. I think blocking a flat color is enough you can always use the flat color as mask later on to separate object. Personally i think it best to drawing the texture instead in a beta test instead of skipping and seeing what stick.Like test the reflectivity the bumpiness of the material the color the transparency. The trap with the software is never getting satisfied being able to commit to something in a drawing form i feel it help have a clearer vision once inside blender.
