I would really appreciate if any of u guys would help me getting some nice shadows and hightlights here

interesting line work. try looking at frank frazettas ways of using light and shadow. analyze where the light source must be in his pictures and try to emphasize the same light and dark areas in your own image. i only mention his name because he often uses some pretty dramatic lighting which i think could start you off on a good study-path.

I thought I would give you some options. There are plenty more, though. When doing shadows pick a direction for the light to be coming from. Then imagen it as a sculpture in a third dimention, place the highlights, from there, you can see where the shadows will lie.

Awesome!
Thanks alot, both u guys.
Then i got a minor problem as well, I'm trying to add some more skintones but, I'm not satisfied. I've tried putting on some red and a little yellow to, but it just looks messy.
