Making the transitions of polygons from 2d-to 3d.

[NickNickNick]

I am new at modeling and I am having trouble making a 3d model. When I use the faces I use an image to guide me. But It comes out all flat because I dont know how to "turn" the faces to make a 3d transition. Ive tried rotating and using a different projection but it just confuses me. Help would be great right about now.
