Pixel Joint Forum: Need help with proper shadow and lighting

Message

   Hi Guys. 

I have a problem how to do proper shadow and lighting on my paint. I do not know how to do reflections on irregular shapes. Most tutorials are based on spheres.

I am seeking for some guidance. Maybe someone could take a look on this and fix it and maybe write some comments, tips, guides? 

This is just concept art (WIP) of spaceship engine ( I will fix irregular lines latter).
