XM1014 | Tranquility (Minimal Wear)

The XM1014 | Tranquility (Minimal Wear) is a Classified shotgun skin showing a hand-painted long-haired woman over a red base. Minimal Wear keeps the portrait looking nearly untouched while trimming a little off the Factory New price.

Design

Set on a deep red base, the finish carries a hand-painted image of a woman with long flowing hair — a calm, artful design that trades tactical grit for something closer to a painting. The community artist SerQ created it, and it ships with a fitting line: "I'm not here for what I need; I'm here for something I want - Imogen and The Oni Part 2."

XM1014 | Tranquility (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

Inside the finish's 0.00–0.50 float span, Minimal Wear sits just above Factory New. The red base stays rich here and the painted figure keeps its detail, with only the faintest edge wear that takes a close look to notice. For most buyers it's the value grade near the top of the ladder.

XM1014 | Tranquility Rarity

Rarity: Classified. That's the pink grade — one rung below Covert and second-highest among the standard weapon tiers, which makes it a genuinely uncommon unbox.

XM1014 | Tranquility Case and Collection

Part of The Vanguard Collection, this shotgun comes out of the Operation Vanguard Weapon Case that launched with Operation Vanguard in November 2014. Across the case the Classified tier pulls at roughly 3.2% (a figure shared among the tier's skins), so with the case retired, buyers get most copies from the market rather than from unboxing.

XM1014 | Tranquility Patterns

This finish carries no random pattern variation — the painted portrait and red base land identically on each copy, meaning no paint seed or "blue gem" is worth chasing. The only differences between copies come down to wear and float.

StatTrak & Souvenir

Alongside the standard finish there's a StatTrak edition, which adds a confirmed-kill counter; that count is permanent and never gets wiped when the shotgun changes owners. No Souvenir version was ever produced, since those come strictly from Major-tournament packages and this finish wasn't part of one.

XM1014 | Tranquility Price

Minimal Wear sits a step under Factory New on the ladder while looking almost as fresh, so it's the smart entry into a finish that already lives in high-end, grail-tier territory. You get near-top condition for less than the flawless grade. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is Minimal Wear a better buy than Factory New?

For value, usually yes. Minimal Wear looks almost identical to Factory New — the deep red base and painted figure stay vivid — but costs less than the top grade. Reach for Factory New only if you want the best possible condition; otherwise Minimal Wear gives you nearly the same artwork for the money.

How worn does the shotgun look at this grade?

Hardly worn. Minimal Wear shows only faint scuffing on the sharpest edges, and the red base and painted portrait remain rich and legible. From normal in-game distance it reads as good as new, which is why it's a favored grade for a finish this collectible.

Is there a best pattern to look for?

No. Tranquility is a fixed-design finish, so the painted figure appears the same on every copy regardless of the paint seed. There's no rare variant or blue-gem roll to hunt — the only meaningful decision is which wear grade and float value suit your budget.
