This is not texturing, but Rendering. There are lots of tutorials online and in the maya Help files or you could buy a book or DVD. The links above and:
Digital Tutors Free Rendering Tutorials
DT cover a lot of subjects with free tutorials, but if you want to follow there entire project you must buy a DVD. A lot of photorealism is acheived at the compositing stage and require Photoshop or After Effects. Mental Ray is a very complex beast and does take timwe to get to know properly. Don't take this post the wrong way, I only advising you.
How long have you been using Maya?
