The technique can range from graffiti-like freehand designs to more organized stencil work, providing a rugged, street-art aesthetic to the weapon's surface. This skin uses the updated CS2 model.
The Nova's rock-bottom price tag makes it a great ambush weapon for a cash-strapped team. It has been spray painted with a randomized pattern of a dandelion field.
