The AWP has always been a fan favorite, but this one adds a playful twist. The skin features an artistic, childlike rendition of a girl and her robot in vivid graffiti. It's like holding onto a piece of innocent imagination, which makes it a paradoxically fun contrast to the deadly precision of the AWP itself.

Price: $75

Quality: Covert

Collection: Gallery Case

Imagine battling opponents with a rifle straight out of a '90s cyberpunk dreamscape. This skin is all about nostalgia, filled with glitchy imagery and abstract forms that remind you of the early internet. It's not just a gun; it's a pixelated piece of art wrapped in retro-futuristic coolness.

A skin that makes you feel like a mischief-maker on the streets, the Glock-18 Gold Toof looks like a cartoonish face, complete with a glimmering golden tooth. This skin adds a cheeky touch to your standard terrorist sidearm, exuding confidence and a bit of bad-boy flair.

Ever had one of those moments in-game where time slows down as you line up the perfect shot? That's what Crossfade feels like—a freeze-frame of the exact moment between life and death. The graphics seem to capture the tension right before the action snaps back into motion.

Desert Eagle | Tilted

Price: $0.3

Quality: Industrial Grade

Collection: Overpass 2024 Collection

This skin is loud, messy, and filled with attitude. Covered in graffiti, it gives off the vibe of a street brawler—harsh and unrefined. It's the skin of choice for players who want to take the iconic Deagle and make it feel rebellious.

M4A1-S | Wash Me Plz

Collection: Overpass 2024 Collection

The scribbled "Wash me" graffiti suggests neglect, but don't let that fool you. This M4A1-S skin is a reminder that sometimes, even the most chaotic appearances hide incredible precision. It's a nod to all those players who thrive in controlled chaos.

Collection: Gallery Case

Dual pistols are already a symbol of controlled madness, but add cherubic artwork to them, and you're wielding irony. These skins evoke the contrast between innocence and destruction—a heaven-sent gift with deadly consequences.

Five-SeveN | Heat Treated

Forged in fire, each version of this skin is unique due to its heat-treated finish. It feels like you're holding a relic—something that has survived countless battles, making it seem ancient and resilient.

This is the Deagle re-imagined as an arcade game. The metallic design is reminiscent of the flashy graphics of old-school games, giving you that nostalgic thrill every time you land a perfect headshot.

Galil AR | Rainbow Spoon

A rainbow-tinted skin that feels experimental and edgy, much like the Galil itself—underestimated but deadly in the right hands. Its heat-processed look gives it a hand-crafted, almost artistic feel.
