Then maybe you should pick a map which you could actually finish. Making a good looking ship map is quite hard.

Or maybe you shouldn't be a prick about somebody trying to get help - which if that isn't your intent, I apologize ahead of time for snapping at you - projects like this aren't always 1-person jobs, nor is it unreasonable for somebody who wants to make a map - but knows he needs help to *duh* get help. Even if I can do the texture work, I simply don't have the time to take on EVERY piece of making a map, I'm working a most-time job during the summer, limiting my free time as it is - and that's without factoring in a girlfriend I'm trying to spend time with consistently, and having a social life - as well as learning essentials like learning how to drive, and tons of other things.
Plus, some people are just better at the putting together of a map, not the texturing [and vice versa], no reason to abandon making a map all together.

Ok, I hope you will find what you need but you aren't most likely going to find it here. If you are really trying to find a partner, I would recommend you try at http://www.interlopers.net/ . I still wouldn't go on and ask people's help since you have nothing to show off of your skills that you are worth the trouble. At least what you have shown here... Nobody is going to make custom textures so you could abandon your project.
About what I said about that you being able to finish it; I assume that you are recreating Titanic, ok. And I also assume that you are fairly new to mapping. That is a hard project on one person, I agree. Have you thought about models? Are you going to create whole ship with brushes? Aren't those railings pretty hard to create with hammer? Are you going to stick to this project whatever happens?
I will still stick to my opinion and tell you to pick an easier project to work on. I know I have had a lot of these ideas but in the end it would fall down to the simple fact that I don't have the resources or the skill to do it. And sometimes I might try it and learn something new or maybe actually succeed at it. But for this kind of project it's way too out.
