Souvenir M4A4 | Desolate Space (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Desolate Space pairs a gold astronaut helmet with a skull visor and turquoise cosmic smoke on a purple M4A4. In Battle-Scarred large areas of paint are worn through, especially on edges, the handguard and the magazine, so the artwork appears in fragments. It suits buyers who like the colour scheme and want the cheapest way to carry this skin.

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

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The rifle is painted in a purple and magenta base, with the front sight, barrel tip, carry handle and the end of the stock picked out in lavender. The receiver carries the main image, a gold astronaut helmet with a skull visible through the visor, set against cyan and turquoise smoke that flows along the handguard and down to the magazine well.

Large patches of paint are gone from the handguard, magazine, carry handle and stock edges, exposing the base beneath. The helmet is heavily scraped and the skull behind the visor loses much of its detail. The cyan smoke survives only as broken fragments. In game the rifle reads as a worn purple weapon with flashes of cyan and gold.

Stickers and crafts

Stickers in purple, cyan, holographic or gold tones match the palette of this M4A4. Placements along the handguard blend into the glowing smoke, while keeping the receiver area free leaves the astronaut helmet visible.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since higher values show more scuffs on the handguard and magazine.
• Inspect the gold astronaut helmet on the receiver, as it is the focal point of the artwork.
• Look at the edges of the handguard, the carry handle and the front sight, which lose paint first.
• Review applied stickers and any name tag to make sure they suit your taste, because they cannot be moved.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Budget buyers who want this skin at the lowest entry point.
• Players who like a heavily worn look with fragments of the artwork.
