M4A1-S | Party Animal (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

Party Animal is recognisable at any range thanks to its mix of hot pink, purple and teal spots. In Field-Tested the print is still bold, but the edges and protruding parts start showing bare metal through the paint. It suits players who want the colour on screen and accept visible use on close inspection.

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

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Field-Tested

The suppressor and magazine are dominated by magenta and pink with darker violet and turquoise spots, and the magazine adds small orange and yellow rosettes. The ribbed handguard has a smooth violet-to-lavender gradient that sets it apart from the busier parts.

Scuffs are clearly visible on the suppressor tip, magazine edges and the raised ribs of the handguard. The receiver corners start to lose paint, while its flat sides keep the turquoise and pink spots. In game the rifle still reads as bright neon, and the wear shows mainly on inspect. The stock remains mostly clean.

Which stickers suit it

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the wear grade, because the suppressor tip and magazine edges show the difference first.
• Look at the handguard ribs on inspect, as they lose paint earlier than the flat parts.
• On Souvenir copies, see whether the fixed stickers fit the neon colours of the print.
• Check applied stickers and the name tag, since they add to the look but can clash with the busy pattern.

Who should buy Field-Tested

• Players who want the bright colour in game and rarely inspect the rifle.
• Buyers looking for a balance between look and cost.
• In short: a practical everyday choice for this skin.
