Glock-18 | Shinobu (Factory New)

Skin overview

Glock-18 | Shinobu is a Classified pistol finish with an illustrated woman's face across the slide, framed by dark violet hair on a purple frame. In Factory New the pale pink face, the sharp eye detail and the lavender accents look the way the artwork was drawn. This is the grade for buyers who want the portrait without any compromise.

Item type: pistol. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The slide carries the main artwork: a woman's face in pale pink tones with dark violet hair strands falling across it and detailed eyes with red-tinted lenses near the rear sight. The front of the slide and the muzzle area are covered in dark purple with fine hair lines, while the rear serrations are a deep violet. The frame and grip are purple with darker textured panels and a small logo, and the trigger guard, trigger and magazine base are a lighter lavender, with small cream-coloured controls. On worn copies the paint goes first from the slide top, the muzzle edges and the sharp corners of the slide, then from the face itself and the raised grip texture.

The finish is clean on every part, from the face on the slide to the lavender magazine base. Skin tones stay smooth and the eye detail is sharp. In game the portrait reads clearly even at a glance during the draw animation. Nothing on the slide edges or muzzle shows paint loss.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, since the face on the slide loses detail quickly as float rises.
• Inspect the eyes and face on the slide first, as that is where wear hurts the look most.
• Look at the slide edges and the muzzle, which show paint loss earliest.
• Review any applied stickers or a name tag, including souvenir stickers, as they change how the slide composition reads.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the portrait with every detail intact.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for a matched purple craft.
• Conclusion: the grade for those who want the artwork exactly as drawn.
