I found this model on Thingiverse, couldn't wait to print it and paint it :)
One coating of black! You'll have to excuse my chaotic/cluttered desk! As my fiance says: https://i.imgflip.com/eaykx.gif

2+ coats of black

Added some blue!

Added gold/green

Triforce (3d printed, acrylic paint)

Oooo shiny!! I'd say it takes around 8 coats of acrylic paint to make it look 'nice'. (It would help if the PLA was a solid color. However, we had an abundance of clear haha!)The PLA wasn't sanded or primed before I painted it.

It looks good, but next time sand and prime it first, it will look much better.
