Platinum Watch #55: Driveclub

After many hours (2.5 months), I finally got my platinum trophy in Driveclub thanks to the season pass and all the DLC they've continued to release post-launch.

Do not buy this clay. Do not use this clay.  I wanted to make a figure I could paint, but I've never sculpted before. I watched literally a couple of videos and decided to give it a shot. I am not an artistic person by any means. The best I could do is sloppily replicate something I've seen. Having little confidence in creating something from nothing, I decided to not buy Super Sculpey, a clay that needs to dry in the oven, possibly in layers...
