Nova | Candy Apple is part of The Italy Collection, appearing as a souvenir in the DreamHack 2013 and EMS One 2014 packages — among the very first CS:GO major event souvenirs. The red and black solid-color scheme on individual parts gave it a clean, high-contrast look.
The finish spray-paints individual weapon parts in solid red and black. The flavor text — 'Great on cars, better on weapons' — references candy apple red as a classic automotive color, positioning the shotgun's finish as superior to a car paint job.
