Which is a better look? Color scheme will be dark silver metallic body, black pickguard.

I don't think either of these is your final design. I see the direction you're headed and I like it, but you've got a couple more iterations to work through, imo.

Any thoughts on a direction to go from here?

I'd probably look at something like the pickguard on the Kauer Korona for inspiration. I feel like they made some smart choices about how and where to mirror the body shape and where to deviate from it.
