Custom Sticker Combination Tutorial #31: Little Matchstick Man

BUFFAssistant

Let me show you these new creative combos—fun little sticker setups to dress up your weapon.

Stick Figure

A tiny custom stick figure! Submitted by user @火中做自己233. It looks complicated, so you might not know where to start. But it’s actually very simple: one black ⚫ and a few > symbols are all you need to put this combo together. So which stickers are these in-game? Let’s take a look at them:

You’ll need the Sticker | Blinky and Sticker | Snapshot stickers. Scrape Sticker | Blinky to 0% to reveal the hidden scraped pattern “>.” Sticker | Snapshot has a white sclera with a round black pupil, so use it for the head. Scrape three Sticker | Blinky stickers to 0% to get three “>” shapes, then rotate them to build the stick figure’s body. Rotate the third one into a “^” shape for the stick figure’s legs, and you’re done! This works well with white-themed skins such as Printstream, Whiteout, MP9 | Swallowtail, and more.

Also, while putting this together, I remembered that the character craft has a Sticker | Mustache. After scraping it down, it leaves a tiny mustache shape, which you can also use to give the stick figure a more distinctive hairstyle!

Perfect timing: the MP9 | Swallowtail body also has two dark round model textures, which work as the two basketballs specially built into this middle-part stick figure setup. 🏀

Little Curly Hair

Some players think the prominent forehead on this Glock-18 | Umbral Rabbit skin doesn't look great, so make curly bangs instead—little black curls. Pick five Sticker | Panthera onca stickers, choosing the cheapest Paris 2023 Standard Sticker | Panthera onca. They're the best value and very forgiving to work with; five stickers are enough to make these little curls for just a dime. Paris 2023 scrape king—scrape it all the way down to remove the event logo, then rotate and apply it. Use the panther's large neck wrap to create the bangs.

‌

Redline Lightning

This color-matched red lightning setup earned this Redline the nickname “Red Lightning” from teammates for its efficient kills. Ahem—use five “Sticker | White Scars” stickers here. Yep... white. Lay the five stickers flat, connect them side by side, and cover the red stripe on the Redline to complete a single line. The five high-contrast red lightning bolts ⚡ represent efficiently taking down five enemies.

‌

Orange Sunflower / Orange Icarus

You can use orange-toned skins and orange-toned stickers to build an orange sunflower. Pick an orange round sticker, such as Sticker | Gilding, or the sticker shown in the image, “Assist.” This sticker is orange-toned. Then pair it with four Fnatic stickers, also choosing the Paris 2023 Glitter sticker. Glitter stickers look especially strong, though regular or Holo versions also work well. If you choose gold stickers, swap the sun for the shiny round sticker “Sticker | Don't Worry, I'm Pro.”

First, rotate and apply four Fnatic stickers, then place the orange “Assist” over the top to finish the orange sunflower. Scrape the Fnatic stickers all the way down: this removes the event logo and also scrapes away the sticker's white border, making the combo look more natural.

Hot to the touch

Hot to handle! For this, use a red-themed skin such as Red Laminate. Apply five Scorched stickers, rotate them, and place them along the top of the weapon. Testing shows that the position in the image is the highest point where stickers can be applied. Rotate them 180° to create an AK rising from the flames. The red wood grain pairs perfectly with the red flame pattern. Other plain red-themed skins with a clean weapon top, such as Redline and AK-47 | Orbit Mk01, also work well with this combo.
