M4A4 | Polysoup (Factory New)

Skin overview

M4A4 | Polysoup pairs a dark receiver covered in multicoloured crystals with dusty pink furniture and a pale gold magazine. In Factory New the crystal facets stay sharp, and the pearlescent accents keep their full sheen. This is the grade where the contrast between the busy centre and the calm pastel parts reads most clearly.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Solid Color: a single colour without a pattern; wear dulls it evenly and rubs it off along the edges.

Appearance in Factory New

The upper and lower receiver are dark, almost black, and covered with a mosaic of crystals in blue, teal, green and violet, with light lettering across the upper receiver and gold-coloured accents around the controls. The front sight, carry handle, ribbed handguard, pistol grip and stock are painted a dusty pastel pink. The barrel and rails stay dark with a slight teal tint, and the magazine has a pale gold pearlescent finish. On worn copies the pink paint and the magazine chip first along edges and raised parts such as the carry handle, front sight, handguard ribs and stock corners, while the dark crystal area shows wear less.

The pink furniture, the gold magazine and the crystal receiver are all clean. Edges of the carry handle and front sight show no visible marks. The pearlescent sheen on the magazine and accents is at its strongest. In game every colour in the mosaic reads distinctly.
