Don't know how to do that stuff, but your work looks great. Would love to see your finished work.

Nice work ! looking forward to the finished korn too ! For the prominent highlights, you could use white blurred forms that appear like a reflection of a lightsource.

Hey Pipo do you know of any tutorials or any web pages that can achieve that lighting effect that you mention?
