"Well, I must confess I was being a tad facetious." :steamhappy: (Sorry, that's the closest thing to the nerd Emoji).

The two are quite similar, but it's far from a clone. Even if it was, it's not nearly that big a deal, especially considering Aquamarine is a Gen. 1 skin and comes from a case that, on the SCM, starts at $1.34. There are plenty of War Paints that seem have 'taken' inspiration from old skins, such as Electroshocked, Chilly Autumn, Dream Piped, or Bomber Soul, and they're all great skins. And I bet this one would be as well, definitely deserving of Mercenary or Commando.

Well, I must confess I was being a tad facetious.

However, I wasn't entirely joking. You're kind of half-wrong (My opinion, I could be wrong, not meant to tear you down) when you say Aquamarine doesn't have any gold highlights. I'm referring to the sights, the trigger guard, and the bands. To me, it always looked like tarnished gold. Again, could be wrong.

The 2nd, and much stronger resemblance between the two is in the primary texture. The secondary texture has no resemblance, so it doesn't matter. They're obviously both meant to represent water, but it goes deeper than that. They're supposed to be the closeup shot of water that you might see, say, on the docks or at the beach. The wavy patterns are similar, but the Aquamarine one is more subtle, while Triton's is more distinct. The colors are close as well, but Aquamarine's is more muted, while Triton's are more saturated, but not egregiously so (unlike all the Elite grade bait on the Workshop).

People have mentioned that it looks like Aqua Marine, but they look absolutely nothing similar, why do you think they look similar? (Not a jab, just genuinely curious)

aquamarine doesn't have any gold on it, nor a dark highlight color, nor have a water ripple primary. The shade of blue isn't even similar.

This is just the Aqua Marine RL, ... but all weapon. And in a non-Powerhouse case.

You know what, I don't really mind. Looks cool, it'd make a good Mercenary grade.

i see that you made the blu version first but honestly the red variant is way better, too much blue. also ks sheens wouldnt work very well on this given it's not regularly team colored. I think red should just be the only color

i only like the red variant tbh, it feels too blue on blu

Becha 22 May, 2022 @ 6:42pm 
the red variant is not not blue enough
Jouppi 22 May, 2022 @ 2:27pm 
Very cool

@whatsabun because i like unconventional team colors, the blue was the original one made so i made a greener version for red after the fact :)

This one is a beauty

Cool but why bother making a blue team coloured version if it's already blueish?
