Merry Christmas Norbi! ^^

I ve been thinking about your question. when I was at university today I had an idea, what could be usefull to you... I hope it will be^^:

so the first one shows, the rough positions of light and shadow: a bit above the middle of the sphere the highlight starts. Of course the highlight is a reflection as well (lamp or in this case the sky).

As you can see, there is also a lighter tone at the bottom, which is the reflection of the ground. In this case the ground is white so the reflection is white as well. If you paint your shape this way, it will already look quite nifty.

In the second sphere I did a grading in the sky because the sky always appears to be lighter where it touches the ground. Here I just made it lighter, but you could reflect a whole city's buildings in there^^ (if you got the time).

The third one: One of the most pregnant differences between glass and metal is, that in metal shaders the reflection becomes less visibly at borders, when in glass shaders the reflection becomes stronger at borders (in majority of cases). Here you can also see how a checked plane as a ground would be reflected on a sphere.

I think, when you understand, how to give this material to a sphere, you can give it to almost everything like in the fourth, a cylinder. Here as you can see I did an extra highlight. When you want it even more flat, just blur the bottom border of the sky reflection (that will do it).
So dented objects can still be difficult but I guess there is nothing to say against doing a bit of cheating ^^...

I hope I could help and if you need some further stuff, feel free to ask! greets and cheers!
