Souvenir FAMAS | Afterimage (Factory New)

Skin overview

FAMAS | Afterimage covers the rifle in a deep navy finish crossed by torn red and pink ribbon trails with thin light-blue streaks. In Factory New the blue stays dark and even, and the ribbons keep crisp edges and full saturation. This is the grade where the contrast between the cool base and the warm trails is at its strongest.

Item type: rifle. The weapon is available only on the Counter-Terrorist side. Classified is the second-rarest weapon tier, only Covert sits above it.

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 and Well-Worn. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Factory New

The receiver and carry handle are painted deep navy with a darker mottled texture, and red ribbon trails with pink and light-blue edges wrap around the top of the handle and the body. The stock carries the densest cluster of ribbons, with tangled red streaks across the cheek area and butt.

The navy paint is intact on every part, including the thin edges of the carry handle. The ribbon trails keep sharp outlines and their pink and light-blue edges are clearly separated from the red. In game the rifle reads as a dark blue body with bright red streaks. Nothing on the weapon shows wear.

Factory New quality — float range 0.02–0.07

The skin’s collection is The eSports 2013 Winter Collection with 12 skins in total.

The source is eSports 2013 Winter Case (on sale since Jul 9, 2014).

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, pink and light-blue stickers match the ribbon colours and blend into the design. Dark navy or holographic blue stickers on the body keep the look calm and unified. Placing stickers on the receiver side leaves the dense ribbon cluster on the stock visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Look at the edges of the carry handle, since they show wear first on this skin.
• Compare the float position within the grade, especially in Field-Tested where condition varies the most.
• Check that the red ribbons on the stock are bright, as they carry most of the design.
• Note any stickers or name tag and whether they fit the blue and red scheme.

Who the Factory New quality suits

• Collectors who want the strongest colour contrast and clean edges.
• Sticker crafters who need an untouched base.
• Conclusion: the choice for those who want the design at its best.
