it's a good effort.
however, about using white highlights, i'd suggest you to chose a light color instead, (close to white if you want) and a light posisiton within your artwork, and analyse how the reflections may work within your pieces. i'm telling you this because most peeps believe that a white hightlight can always do the trick. it's not the white which is important, but the fact that it's a light.
white highlights can be rather risky, as they might not give enough atmosphere to the pics. it should not be used as an "effect", but understood first as a realistic process for your images.

keep it up
