Good work. Nice to see people doing new Models.
I can help your with materials.
You should also read this part of the Ogre3D Manual:
3.1 Material Scripts -> 3.1.11 Copying Materials
http://www.ogre3d.org/docs/manual/manua ... C_Contents
If you want to contribute, please use our Upload Form:

For Texturemapping, you should generate a good UVMap, than choose a Metal Texture and apply the UVMap to this Texture.
But i think you already did it.
If you submit something, please put all files in a Zip-Archive (not 7-Zip):
-Original 3ds/maya or blender file
-raw Texture (png,bmp or...)
-Ogre *.mesh or *.mesh.xml
-Material File
optional:
-Texture as DDS
Keep on good work!
