Souvenir Nova | Rising Sun (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

This Nova stands out through its contrast: a plain dark front half and a receiver and stock filled with blossoms and a rising sun. In Field-Tested the colour panels still carry the design, while scuffs appear along the receiver edges and the lower stock. From a normal viewing distance the stained glass look remains clear and recognisable.

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

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

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

Appearance in Field-Tested

The barrel is left in dark gunmetal with a silver front cap, and the ribbed pump is also dark with a cool grey sheen. The receiver carries the main artwork: pale pink and white blossoms, red accents and small decorative markings, divided into stained glass segments by dark outlines.

Scuffs become visible along the receiver edges, around the trigger area and on the lower part of the stock. Some smaller details on the receiver start to soften. The blossom and sun motif still reads clearly in game. The centre of the stock artwork and the dark barrel stay mostly clean.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of Souvenir Nova | Rising Sun is 0–1; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (23% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The Fever Collection with 17 skins in total.

The source is Fever Case.

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.

Which stickers suit it

Stickers in pink, red, white or gold match the blossom and sun palette of the receiver. Dark or teal stickers can sit on the plain barrel area without competing with the artwork.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, since the receiver edges and stock change noticeably between low and high values.
• Inspect the bottom and edges of the stock, as they lose paint first.
• Look at the small markings on the receiver to judge how crisp the artwork still is.
• Note any stickers or name tag and whether they suit the pink and red artwork.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who want the recognisable Rising Sun look in regular matches.
• Buyers comfortable with edge wear in exchange for a lower cost.
• A practical everyday option.
