5, Would be a 6 if it had been based. By rights i normally give a 4 for any unbased minature regardless of quality of painting. You could apply a wash to the sword then highlinghts with a lighter silver. The application of wash can be a bit 'sudden', I would aviod washes as a final coat. Try highlighting or drybrushing the hair a bit more. i can see this is a very neatly painted piece and is a good base for highlighting just a bit more, try successive highlights through 3 or 4 shades. I hope my critism is helpful, i'm not trying to be nasty, as i like this, and can see how much highlighting could help you go even further. with a base and the more successive highlights i would give this a 7 or 8.
