In the pictures you can see on the places where light comes, the blue is lighter. That's how I want it. enter image description here

In my case it is only a bit brighter and not really light blue. enter image description here

I have also tried with Fresnel but that is not exactly what I want. enter image description here

Do you have any idea how to do this?

    $\begingroup$ It looks like you're just starting with blender, this is a pretty common issue to run into. It comes down to lighting and materials, suggest you look into some lighting tutorials and stick to just the principled bsdf until you're more comfortable. There's a lot of control built into it, and actually your node setup is somewhat paradoxical :p $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ The principles are exactly the same as filming an actor on camera - you have control over the number, power, and placement of the lights. youtube.com/watch?v=pBt8qdO03-k $\endgroup$

Shader

For such a game graphics/toon style your shader looks promising.

I would replace the Principled BSDF with a simple Diffuse BSDF and the Fresnel with a Layer Weight node, plus a Color Ramp for more control. The Pointiness group just adds some color variation to the base color.

Lights

For the lights try a so-called "tri-point lights" setup. Blender comes with the add-on "Lighting: Tri-lighting" that creates and places three lights for you. Activate the add-on in the preferences. Of course, you can add another light or two if you want.

Experiment with the position, the strength (3x 150W, 400W in the example), and the color of the lights.
