Souvenir AWP | POP AWP (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

This AWP stands out through its retro techno collage: a white base broken up by black graphic lines and small red and blue blocks across the whole stock. In Field-Tested the white areas pick up a slightly greyer, used tone and the edges show scuffs, but the busy pattern hides much of it at a distance. A practical choice for someone who wants the recognisable pattern for regular play.

Item type: sniper rifle. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Hydrographic: the pattern is applied as a film over the metal; wear rubs it down to the base, starting with raised parts.

Appearance in Field-Tested

The long barrel, muzzle, scope and bipod stay in plain dark gunmetal and black, which frames the decorated parts. The hydrographic print covers the receiver area, the magazine and the full stock with a dense collage on a white base.

The white base takes on a greyish tint and light grime, most visible on the flat side panels of the stock. Edges of the stock, the cheek rest and the lower edge near the magazine show clear scuffs. Red and blue patches lose a little of their punch but stay readable. In game the busy collage masks much of the wear.

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

Red, blue, white and black stickers continue the retro palette without fighting the collage. Bold, simple designs read better on such a busy surface than detailed ones. Placing them on the flatter stock panels keeps them visible against the pattern.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the white base shows wear more than darker finishes.
• Look at the edges of the stock, the cheek rest and the area around the magazine, which wear first.
• Compare the visible side of the collage between copies, as the red and blue patches can land in slightly different spots.
• Note any stickers or name tag already applied and whether they match your plans.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the recognisable collage for everyday matches.
• Buyers who accept a greyer white base in exchange for saving.
• In short: a practical everyday AWP.
