SSG 08 | Detour (Field-Tested)

Skin overview

This SSG 08 pairs a white base with loose black marker sketches, giving it a hand-made, notebook feel. In Field-Tested the white picks up grey scuffs and the edges start to darken, which suits the rough drawn style. The marker art itself stays readable.

Item type: sniper rifle. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

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

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear and Well-Worn.

Appearance in Field-Tested

The receiver, handguard and pistol grip are painted in a cream-white base coat covered with black permanent-marker arrows, lines and small sketches. The handguard cutouts and rail sections stay dark, breaking up the white surface.

Grey scuffs spread over the white base, mostly on the receiver edges, the handguard and the grip. Some marker strokes on edges get thinner. In game the body reads as off-white rather than bright. The flat central areas of the receiver still look fairly clean.

Field-Tested wear: float 0.15–0.38

The whole float range of SSG 08 | Detour is 0–0.43; Field-Tested takes the 0.15–0.38 segment (53% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Which stickers suit it

Black-and-white or monochrome sketch-style stickers match the marker doodles. Placing them on the white receiver keeps them visible, while a single colour accent can work against the neutral base.

What to check before buying

• Check where the float sits within the wear, since the white base shows scuffs more clearly than darker finishes.
• Inspect the receiver edges and the grip, which lose paint first.
• Look at applied stickers and name tags, and note that Souvenir copies come with their own fixed stickers.

Who the Field-Tested quality suits

• Players who like the rough, used look that fits the sketch style.
• Budget buyers wanting the design without paying for clean grades.
• A practical everyday option.
