I'm on an iPad right now so dunno how to direct link my image. But here's my first effort on the app. Surprised how keen other miiverse users were on this seeing as it's not Nintendo or anime type stuff.

Suggestion to others, offer new artists encouragement and critique if you see them post. Lets be the friendliest and most supportive art community we can be!

Really nice work! I'm too ignorant on the subject to offer anything on the matter but an appreciation. I likes what I likes.

Oh great we now can access miiverse through the wii u web browser. Didn't know that, it wasn't working last time I tried. It'll help following this app community.

I have 13$ sitting on my eShop account doing nothing. Should I get this? One of my friends doesn't have a Wii U but she'd be all over this.

My first spin with the software, I wanted to keep it as simple as possible, as I want to enjoy the end of the heatwave (even if it's just temporary) and keep it calm and simple.

Didn't turn out too bad for spending 20 minutes on it.

Just a warning that Miiverse doesn't like smoking in images, so be careful! Otherwise, really like it, so Chill!

Tried this a second time. Still couldn't get bothered finishing the thing, but I'm getting used to it anyway.
When I was mixing colors for some reason some white bled into the bottom of the apple and I gave up fixing it, lol.

That's really smooth and nice looking, great use of color!


That's quite nice looking, but I hope they work on it even more! So many images where it feels as if the artist got the point they want as fleshed out as possible, and then just said "bah, I'm tired of this!" and left other elements less refined... I can sympathize, but it kinda diminishes the piece a bit...

Got 81 yeahs on the Link piece so far, not too bad! Seems like an active community.

Oh man thinking of getting this for my new Wii U now and it's "cheap". But I can't draw so it might be smarter to get the 3DS version now but of course the Wii U one will get tutorials. The question is when and how many.

I wonder how easy it would be to make an Art Academy grid overlay thingy on PC so's we can plonk it on pictures and draw them that way...

I just bought the 3DS version from amazon (£12.50!) for the lessons, and will wait for the wiiU version to get lessons.
