you could try fine airbrushing, automotive scratch fillers, some handy brushing, but that truly depends on the depth of the scratch. To get the best possible finish, it would be a good idea to sandblast all the paint and refinish it. Especially if you're into collecting more than gaming.

from personal experience my airbrush has dine me very well, I use a badger Crescendo 175, with the fine flow control filling scratches, scuffs and bumps its like they never happened.

If its a deep scratch and you still don't want to sand it, use bondo, cover the scratch, level it out and sand just the bondo then continue painting

edit: I missed the fact it was silver, could try automotive polish if its chromed, if its brushed.. well, thats just difficult
