Souvenir AWP | CMYK (Factory New)

Skin overview

AWP | CMYK puts bright print colours on a white base. Cyan, magenta, yellow and black spread across the rifle as splashes, halftone dots and colour fades. In Factory New the white stays clean and every dot and transition is sharp, so the print-shop idea reads at once.

Item type: sniper rifle. Covert is the top weapon rarity: usually the most prominent items of a collection or case.

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

Other qualities of this skin: Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Factory New

The stock and receiver are painted in an off-white base with a magenta stripe along the top of the stock and a cyan swirl near the grip. The lower stock carries yellow-green halftone dots, and a black letter K sits near the rear, closing the four print colours.

The white base is even and bright, with no visible scratches. The halftone dots, the magenta stripe and the barrel gradient keep crisp borders. In first person the light stock and colour accents stand out clearly at any distance. Every part of the rifle looks clean.

What it costs in each quality

Among 17 skins of the AWP in the Covert grade and this quality, this skin ranks 4th by price, counting from the dearest.

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

Stickers in cyan, magenta, yellow or black follow the print-colour idea of the skin. Holographic and colourful stickers sit well on the light part of the stock and receiver, while plain white stickers tend to blend into the base.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at where the float sits within the wear range, since the white base makes the difference between low and high floats easy to see.
• Inspect the stock edges, the receiver top, the scope rings and the muzzle, as these lose paint first.
• Check that the halftone dots and the magenta stripe on the stock are intact on worn copies.
• Souvenir copies come with pre-applied stickers, so check whether they suit the artwork.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the white base and print colours fully clean.
• Sticker crafters who need a flawless light canvas.
• Conclusion: the grade for those who want the skin exactly as designed.
