Aimed to keep it more like the picture with the black blade. I thought it suited the Nightingale's better. Need to finish painting the handle but all in all I'm happy
@pixelfixx It was just some black PLA I had laying around. Very quick sanding job, glossy black spray-paint as a primer then airbrushed some metallic gunmetal silver.
Then a bit of thin white and thin black (mixed with gunmetal again) airbrushed along the blade to give more depth to the reflectivity. So I guess some post-processing magic!

Made it a while ago but got around to wall-mounting it recently. Excellent model that was easy to print.
