Souvenir AWP | Chromatic Aberration (Factory New)

Skin overview

AWP | Chromatic Aberration is a Covert custom paint job built on offset colour, with a magenta and purple striped receiver set against a dark body scattered with pink, cyan and white glitch marks. In Factory New the colour fields are solid, and the deliberate misalignment reads as an intended print error rather than damage. This is the grade for buyers who want the effect exactly as designed.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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.

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

How the skin looks in Factory New

The receiver is the focal point, painted bright magenta with purple tiger-like stripes printed slightly out of register. The long barrel and the scope are dark charcoal, dotted with small pink, cyan and white fragments that look like digital glitches, and a cyan ring accents the muzzle.

The paint is intact on every part, and the magenta receiver keeps an even, saturated colour. The glitch fragments on the barrel, scope and stock have crisp edges. In game the rifle reads as a bright pink block framed by dark metal. Nothing looks worn.

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

Holo or foil stickers in pink, purple or cyan match the glitch palette, especially when placed on the dark section of the barrel where they echo the scattered fragments. Black and white stickers suit players who prefer to keep the receiver as the only bright accent.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within its wear grade, since lower values keep the receiver edges and the muzzle cleaner.
• Inspect the receiver edges and the scope rims first, as they lose paint before the rest of the rifle.
• Look at applied stickers and their positions, because bright stickers can clash with the magenta receiver.
• Decide whether you need StatTrak™ or a Souvenir copy, and check any name tag before buying.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the offset colour effect with no scratches at all.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for expensive applications.
• The choice for buyers who accept a higher cost for the exact intended look.
