How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The base of the finish is a dark navy blue that covers the silencer, receiver, grip and stock. Bright teal paint drips down from the top of the long silencer, while acid green runs over the handguard, the receiver top and the sight rail, and splatters onto the pistol grip.

Large areas of paint are scraped from the silencer, the receiver top, the sight mounts and the grip. The drips survive only in broken patches, and the pink on the stock is heavily faded. Some colour remains on the flat sides and lower parts of the body. In game the weapon reads as dark and worn with scattered neon spots.

Stickers and crafts

Holo or foil stickers in teal, green or pink repeat the neon drips and fit the dark receiver well. Dark stickers with bright outlines keep the contrast without covering the drip pattern on top.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the top edge of the silencer and the drip roots show the difference first.
• Look at the sight mounts and receiver ridges on inspect, as these raised parts lose paint early.
• Check applied stickers and a name tag, which can change how the neon colours read.
• Decide whether you want a StatTrak™ or Souvenir copy, as both versions exist.
