M4A4 | Neo-Noir (Well-Worn)

The M4A4 | Neo-Noir in Well-Worn (WW) occupies a stretch of 0.38 to 0.45, which is 8 percent of the finish's scale. The rifle is Covert rank and belongs to The Clutch Collection. Such listings cost more than Field-Tested but less than Minimal Wear.

What the M4A4 | Neo-Noir looks like in Well-Worn

On the side of the receiver is a comic-style woman's face in a pink-crimson fill, with pink hair in white strands and black eyes and outlines catching turquoise highlights. The stock is white and pink with turquoise swirls, the handguard gray-white with blue-gray, and the folding front sight is white. The barrel and muzzle brake are dark metal, and a turquoise ring sits at the muzzle.

In Well-Worn, the thin turquoise lines at the muzzle and on the stock go first, then the handguard edges and the receiver edge near the ejection port. The pink fill of the face holds longer on the flat, whereas the black outlines tear and the portrait loses definition. Wear is set at the drop and does not change on a listing.

Where the M4A4 | Neo-Noir came from

The author, donschi, filed "M4A4_Neo-Noir" in the Workshop on October 17, 2017. He wrote that the M4A1-S version had been liked and some viewers asked for Neo-Noir on the M4A4 as well. He called the new drawing a unique illustration in which the heroine fights with a sword and bears a scar from past encounters. The M4A4 | Neo-Noir was released in February 2018. Its number in Valve's catalog is 695.

• pattern: it is the same on all copies of the M4A4 | Neo-Noir.
