Sawed-Off | Serenity (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Serenity's float range stops short of the heaviest wear, so even the Battle-Scarred Sawed-Off keeps much of its turquoise colour and the outline of the winged figure. Expect clear chipping on the handguard and receiver, with dark metal showing in patches. It is the cheapest way into this artwork, and it still reads as Serenity in game.

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

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The pump handguard is covered in turquoise with a lighter, feather-like pattern that wraps around its whole length, and the front edge shows a warm orange accent. The barrel and the tube under it stay dark gunmetal, which frames the painted parts.

The handguard shows broad chipping and the receiver has worn patches that touch the edges of the figure and wings. Because the float range is capped, the damage stays short of full paint loss and the artwork is still identifiable. In game the gun keeps its turquoise and dark-metal contrast, though visibly roughed up.

Stickers and crafts

Stickers in turquoise, white or gold tones match the palette and the figure's dress. Placing them on the handguard or toward the stock keeps the painted scene on the receiver visible.

What to check before buying

• Look at the receiver on the inspect screen, since the winged figure is the main detail and wear near it matters most.
• Compare floats inside the grade, as the handguard edges and trigger guard show differences first.
• Check applied stickers, because placements on the receiver can cover part of the painting.
• For Battle-Scarred, remember the capped range keeps the artwork readable, so compare a few copies before choosing.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Budget entry for anyone who wants Serenity in their inventory.
• Players who do not mind chipping, since the capped range keeps the artwork recognisable.
