Souvenir Nova | Turquoise Pour (Factory New)

Skin overview

Nova | Turquoise Pour covers the shotgun in a marbled acrylic pour of blue, turquoise and gold with brown streaks running through it. In Factory New the swirls stay crisp along the barrel and stock, and the thin pale lines between colour layers are fully intact. This is the grade for a buyer who wants the pattern exactly as it was designed.

Item type: shotgun. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

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

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

How the skin looks in Factory New

The barrel and receiver are covered in a marbled pour of blue-grey and turquoise with brown and gold veins, separated by thin pale lines. The pump forend stays dark steel grey with its ribbed grooves, which frames the colourful parts.

The pour pattern is complete on every part, including the muzzle and the corners of the receiver. The pale lines between colour layers are sharp, and the gold veins keep their full contrast. At normal distance the shotgun reads as a smooth turquoise-and-gold surface with no grey showing.

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 turquoise, teal, gold or cream match the pour colours and blend into the marbling. Holo or gold stickers on the receiver echo the gold veins, while a single sticker on the side of the barrel keeps the pattern readable.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the wear range, because copies near the lower edge look noticeably cleaner on the barrel.
• Look at the muzzle, the top of the barrel and the receiver corners, as these lose paint first.
• Compare screenshots of the stock, since the pour pattern is placed differently on each copy and some show more gold.
• Check applied stickers and any name tag, as they change the look and do not add value for every buyer.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the pour pattern with every line intact.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for colour-matched stickers.
• The choice for those who value a flawless finish over saving.
