Thanks guys, I'm slowly getting it.

Okay that wasn't that complicated, I wonder why that took me so long.
So I guess something like pic related? I just cut off the capacitor and coil if I'm about to reach the 450V? Maybe with a 47K instead of 49K resistor so it turns off at about 430V.

Is there any perk in using a transformator over a simple boost converter with a single coil as seen in the second pic?

I don't know about Proteus, but you can just daisychain three flipflops to get an (async) binary counter. I'm pretty sure you can just grab some flipflops and do it on your breadboard as well.
