I'd agree with Steve on all counts. No matter what brand you're using, the light meter will be helpful in getting those exposures right.

So other than the light meter and a good editing program, I'd consider looking into some good books on lighting. This is a great one:

This one's also a favorite of mine:

This one I like for beginning lighting:

You can do a lot with the three lights you have. Once you get that down, only then would I think about investing in more equipment. Good luck!
