Souvenir AK-47 | Nightwish (Factory New)

Skin overview

AK-47 | Nightwish is a Covert custom paint job with a deer and dreamcatchers drawn in neon swirls over a dark purple base. In Factory New the pearlescent sheen is intact, and every pink, yellow and cyan line keeps its full brightness. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the artwork exactly as painted.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

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

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

Appearance in Factory New

The base of the whole rifle is a dark purple, almost black, covered in neon swirls of pink, magenta, yellow, cyan, blue and orange with a pearlescent sheen. The receiver carries the main motif, a cyan and blue deer head drawn in flowing lines, surrounded by tight spirals.

No visible scratches on any part of the rifle, and the pearlescent effect covers the whole surface evenly. The deer head on the receiver and the dreamcatchers on the stock and magazine keep sharp line edges. In game the neon colours look saturated even in darker areas of a map. The magazine edges and the muzzle are as clean as the rest of the gun.

Price by quality

Among 20 skins of the AK-47 in the Covert grade and this quality, this skin is the most affordable.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Holographic and neon stickers in pink, cyan or yellow fit the artwork and blend into the swirls. Dark or purple stickers placed on the handguard or near the magazine keep the deer head on the receiver uncovered.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, as a low float in a grade shows noticeably less damage on the magazine and edges.
• Look closely at the deer head on the receiver, since it is the central motif and the most visible part in first person.
• Inspect the bottom and front edges of the magazine, as they wear first on this finish.
• Check whether applied stickers or a name tag suit the neon artwork, because they cannot be moved to another item.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the neon artwork and pearlescent sheen without any marks.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for bright holographic stickers.
• The choice for those who value full colour over savings.
