Introduction:

THQ's uDraw tablet, which was launched on the Nintendo Wii a year ago, has now made it onto the PlayStation 3, enabling users to create works of art on their TV screens (talent not included). The tablet is a well designed but slightly flimsy piece of kit that makes drawing and painting easy, while certain in-built features make it usable with other gameplay styles. uDraw Instant Artist Studio comes bundled with the tablet, offering both a range of art classes and the freedom to create your own masterpiece.

Roadmap:

Step 1: Finish art school tutorials.
The art school contains many types of great tutorials that will benefit your drawing experience and it also has trophies tied to finishing all the lessons.
You can just skip all the tutorials if you didn't feel like doing them.

This will net you:
Great Start
Beginner Artist
Intermediate Artist
Advanced Artist
Remmy's Apprentice

Step 2: Finish the art play section.
The are play section is the major part of the game where you are able to choose any type of background and colours to create a master piece and get some trophies while you're at it.
You can start working on your trophies in any order you like within this section, but for more info please refer to the trophy guide.

Step 3: Beat all mini games.
Mini games are probably the hardest part in the game. It requires some time until you get used to each mini game but overall they are really fun to do especially with groups.
You can start working on your trophies in any order within this section.

[PST Would Like to Thank White-Wolf for this Roadmap]

Maze Master

Completed all 40 Tilt Mazes with a total time of less than 40 minutes
(8)
Attention: this trophy has a glitch that could help you.
This trophy is the toughest one in this game.
You have to beat 40 tilt mazes with a combined time that's less than 40 minutes.

The first types of mazes are easy, it only gets tough when holes start to appear in the maze.

Here are some useful tips to get the trophy:
- Play normally and try to finish each maze without stressing yourself
- After beating all the mazes and your total is above 40 minutes, then replay the maze with the highest complete time.( you will be able to see the time it took you to finish each maze and your total time)
- With each 10 mazes you finish ( from 1-10 / 11-20... ) the game will reload the same mazes in the same order but with more holes each time, so it is recommended to get used to each maze as you play through.
- It is known that maze #40 is hard but thanks to SoopaKilla, there is a tested way to avoid doing it.
"So I found a glitch that actually worked to my advantage since I was getting pretty frustrated with the 40th paint maze. You don't actually have to beat the 40th maze, just finish the 39th then get your time under 40 minutes cumulatively and the trophy will pop. Hope this helps those who have had lots of trouble with the paint mazes like me."

If you beat all the 39 mazes with a time less than 40 minutes, then replay any old maze and beat it and preferably beat your record in it, the trophy will pop after that.
