Narin's new work, if you've got it in your hands, is, MINIMUM, twice as detailed as it used to be. To sit and hold a piece like The Aboriginal in your hands after working on the Death Warrior or Bad Blood, it's not even on the same level. His understanding of anatomy and scale has gotten WAY better. The amount of work he's putting into pieces shows, and adding that level of detail just takes times. He's always got probably half a dozen or more sculpts going, and it's not like he was ever truly prolific to begin with. Some guys like Jeff Yagher can put out a sculpt a week. Narin just doesn't work like that, so if we want his pieces, we have to wait... Which sucks so badly, lol
The King & Queen, specifically, is easily the best kit he'll ever make. The dynamics, the conceptualization, the scaling, the movement, the level of detail in the sculpt... It's even engineered brilliantly. The Guyver kit he just released is easily the worst kit I've gotten from him, simply because there's SO MUCH detail that there's more air bubbles and voids in the kit than any other kit of his I've seen. It's just inevitable when there's as much sculpted detail as there is on it.
To me, Narin is so much more than just his predator sculpts. His pieces have an attitude and a swagger and an aesthetic that no other sculptor has. There's realistic detail to them, but they're posed and move in such dynamic, almost comic book-y ways. I guess it's hard to articulate... I just love his style and I think whatever he puts out is always going to be worth the wait.
