I would suggest you work on as many textures as you can, just start with doing 6 of those materials spheres

If you want a suggestion for which materials to study, do these

-Meat
-Wax
-Wood
-Iron
-Jello
-Sponge

That will help you get a feel how some materials work, why don't you attempt them and post your results here.
