Yes, basically you can go for warmer, reddish highlights, using flesh for instance, colder, drawing toward blue, or more neutral greyish. (You can also get rather good effects by going toward purple colours, but it's a little trickier.)
A good black is hard to paint, and I suggest highlighting in at least two steps. If it's a little bit shiny you should draw the extreme up to white in selected places where the light shines from.
