SSG 08 | Mayan Dreams (Factory New)

Skin overview

SSG 08 | Mayan Dreams is an Industrial Grade hydrographic finish that covers the rifle in a brown and amber Mayan cloud motif with dark curling outlines. In Factory New the pattern is crisp, and the swirls separate cleanly from the warm base tone. The dark barrel and grey fittings stay sharp around it.

Item type: sniper rifle. 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.

Appearance in Factory New

The handguard, receiver and the long stock carry a hydrographic print of brown, tan and amber cloud shapes outlined with thin dark swirls. The pattern also wraps the pistol grip, the cheek rest and the scope body, so most of the rifle reads as one warm ornamental surface. The barrel stays dark grey, while the muzzle brake, bipod, butt plate and monopod remain plain grey metal. On worn copies the print fades first on the handguard edges, the top of the scope and the raised parts of the stock and grip.

The print is complete on every painted part, with sharp dark outlines and even colour. The handguard edges, scope and grip show no marks. In game the rifle looks clean and saturated at any distance. Because the range starts low, these copies are uniformly clean.

• Inspect any name tag or applied stickers to make sure they fit how you want the rifle to look.
