well basicly all you want to do is make a texture and save it as a .tif in any image editing program.....then put it in your bitmaps folder in data (assum,ing this is for CE)....lets say you want to make a gun look like plastic....make a greyish whitish peice of whatever...maybe put some color here and there (like a toy gun) and then save as a .tif.....and since its plastic (still assuming its in CE) when editing the collision things instead of making it metal think make it plastic
for PC make a bitmap and then (in photoshop or paintshop) make it a dds (whatever) and import it with HMT

you need a complete UVW map, created from a uvw unwrap in 3dsmax, and exported by texporter, you create the textures over the map.
