Looking forward to your future posts. Really love that "random" concept.
Great atmosphere in that one.

**D@niel** · February 9th, 2009, 03:16 PM

Some very cool work man!

**congadingsda** · February 9th, 2009, 03:26 PM

luv the minimalistic building!
keep posting new stuff

**Shadow Stalker** · February 12th, 2009, 06:12 PM

Nice sketchbook. I really like the way you "color". I just got a Wacom Bamboo Fun which came with Corel Painter Essentials 4; but I'm clueless. Haha.

**wilkerson** · February 12th, 2009, 06:26 PM

Solid painting all around. I see you've been working hard for a while now. Theres not much I can crit at this point just keep studying nature and refining your technique. have some stars

**Mark Tarrisse** · February 13th, 2009, 04:51 AM

Placeboast : Hehe thanks

D@niel : Thanks !! means a lot coming from you

congadingsda :

thanks, I'll try to do some more enviro, and archi.
Shadow Stalker : I must say when I first bought my wacom I thought hey man it's going to be so easy (as if the wacom was going to do everything for me)

but man we all got to practice thats all. And with hard work you can progress really quickly I think you should look at some sketchbooks like D@niel, Algenpfleger, Vorace who did work hard and had their fruits.
wilkerson : Thanks man I'll keep on working

Here are some works I did not so long ago, and the last CHOW

I LOVE YOUR WORK! Its so inspireing!
楼上的真给中国人丢脸，广告做到这里来了。。。。

**kidult** · February 13th, 2009, 05:28 AM

Some nice stuff you got going! keep pushing!

**Eaze** · February 13th, 2009, 06:13 AM

Your chow is really nice! Love the beast too ^^

**Felida** · February 13th, 2009, 07:01 AM

Awesome Baba Yaga. Maybe you can put a little bit more detail in the forest ground but the character's really nice

Thanks a lot for the workthrough!
You got some beautiful stuff here!

**kaktuzlime** · February 13th, 2009, 05:57 PM

Your art has a lot of mood, character and personality. Apart from the fact that your colours are lovely, that your techinque is good and that your anvironments are top notch, I can think of few things to say ;P The archer on the rocks and the orange girl on the blue field are stunning. It seems you are pushing yourself towards learing new things and trying out different subjects, that´s great!

One thing I think you could pay additional attention to is the effect all the reflected light in the environment, and particularily from the ground, has on the values and colours of your subjects. Perhaps that´s just a fetish of mine, reflected light ^^

You have my respect and and a high five! I´m looking forward to seeing mooooaaarr!

**HunterKiller_** · February 13th, 2009, 06:29 PM

You're from Istanbul, that's very exciting. I love to see the differences in the art of people from different cultures..

As some already mentioned, great mood in your paintings.

Look forward to more.

**spoonbender** · February 13th, 2009, 09:27 PM

The use of lighting in your work is great, you really do get the feeling of the weather and time of day across to the viewer.

just one crit for ya, on the baba yaga piece it really doesn't look like she is floating in the mortar as well as it did in the earlier sketches, it might be the amount of reflectted colour on the bottom of it.

cheers

**LisandroG** · February 13th, 2009, 09:58 PM

nice works you have here, they have a nice vibrant and fresh feel to them. I feel like the ones that are more successful you seem to have taken more time/thought with the preliminary drawing...good stuff!

**jedininjaman** · February 14th, 2009, 12:15 AM

wow 5 stars at one page?
nice stuff man

Very small update, a quicky creature concept I did this morning, not to happy with the result, well in fact it's still a WIP but maybe it will stay like this

**Mark Tarrisse** · February 15th, 2009, 05:54 PM

Well two life studies, and one WIP for tonight

**monotony** · February 15th, 2009, 06:13 PM

wow cool work Markus.
I really like the girl with bow and arrow, and the baba jaga-
now I want to see more!

**Giorge** · February 16th, 2009, 05:37 AM

nice, love the last one in 1st post

. I see that you kinda have problems with the shadows, or light sides dark sides, expand your studies on that

**Sarynroth** · February 16th, 2009, 07:23 AM

really like your drawing style some great ideas.

**nim** · February 17th, 2009, 07:56 AM

awesome sketchbook! wish I could write something constructive but I've never learnt to paint so ...keep working! :D

**Katfayheirti** · February 17th, 2009, 07:58 AM

**sevarenge** · February 17th, 2009, 08:03 AM

my sb:http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=149972

**Janos** · February 17th, 2009, 08:13 AM

Just some thoughts.
The light in the baba yaga piece is awsome. I really like the small light parts on the ground. I do think the colours on the baba should be more influenced by her surroundings though, eg her hair.
I like the winter city pic. Just like it.
I also like the unfinishedness of the elefants, but the perspective on that flower vendor looks really wrong. If it was fotorefffed I'd go back and fix that up.
Now to your wip. It promises a whole lot, but it is still way wip so I'll just give some basic thoughts. FOrst of all I'd change the whole format. I'd say do it horizontal and not vertical and try to incorporate the designs church in teh design. I really like the subject, though.

Cheers

**Mark Tarrisse** · February 19th, 2009, 05:39 PM

Monotony : Thanks, glad you like it

Flamable : If only I had only problems with shadow

I'll work on it

Sarynroth : Thanks
nim : Thanks, well it's never to late to learn

katfayheirti : Wow thanks means a lot, did look at your sketchbook and you have some stunning works !
sevarenge : thanks

Janos : Thanks a lot for the critics !

Here's a little update, just some studies from ref, and a WIP from the last CHOW

**Artofinca** · February 21st, 2009, 12:17 PM

**Katzenminze** · February 21st, 2009, 12:35 PM
