Galil AR | Chromatic Aberration (Battle-Scarred)

For the Galil AR | Chromatic Aberration, Battle-Scarred (BS) is a float band of 0.45 to 1.00, more than half the finish's scale. It is a Classified rifle from The Snakebite Collection. In CS2 a Galil with neon color offset stays recognizable even when scuffed.

What the Galil AR | Chromatic Aberration looks like in Battle-Scarred

The rifle is nearly black, with its color gathered in a few places. Bright purple-pink stripes, like tiger stripes, lie on the receiver cover. The magazine is cut across by blue and pink neon lines with an arrow, and white numerals on the stock stand like a serial number. Valve explains the artwork by offset: the colors are applied with a shift relative to one another, and the item's caption is "(Not so) easy on the eye".

On the black body, wear shows as light scratches along the edges. In Battle-Scarred, scuffs run across the receiver and handguard, but the bright pink stripes survive, because saturated paint is harder to rub off than a thin line. The white numerals on the stock are harder to read.

Where the Galil AR | Chromatic Aberration came from
