Description: This listing is for a hardcover Gravity Falls Journal 3 book that has been meticulously changed to better resemble the Special Edition of Journal 3, complete with invisible-ink pages, textured photographs, the tassel and monocle, and more! This project was made using the current market version of Journal 3 as a base, so it won't fall apart on you like the 1st edition as you turn the pages! Every invisible-ink addition to the book was hand-drawn with reference taken directly from scans of the Special Edition of the book. Details were replicated to look as close as possible to the Special Edition. The only differences in the invisible-ink pages are the random splatters of ink on some pages. The Special Edition had these, but I added a few more in different spots. The "BILL WAS HERE" drawing was also originally underneath the photo of Alex Hirsch on the autograph page (which doesn't exist in this version), and I didn't want to leave it out. This doesn't come across very well in the pictures for this listing, but every single "photograph" and "taped-in" piece of paper in the book is now textured! I dismantled and cut up a whole other copy of Journal 3 in order to achieve this effect. Each photo was cut out of one book and placed into this one. They cannot be flipped up like the Special Edition, but this detail makes the journal feel more like an actual scrapbook! I also glued some metal rivets onto all four corners of the front cover of the book. This was a detail that, to my knowledge, none of the official Journal 3 variants had. I made sure to match the tassel that came with the Special Edition exactly. I couldn't match the monocle exactly, as I believe the one on the Special Edition was made specifically for that release. I also tried to match the ribbon as close as possible; the tassel and monocle are tied with a "lark's head" knot and the ends of each ribbon are glued directly to the spine of the book. PLEASE NOTE: I did not copy every single page from the Special Edition, a fair few have been left out. I also couldn't fit every picture in this listing, so please refer to this YouTube link to see a complete photo gallery of all the upgrades I made to this book, including every invisible-ink page I drew. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymxEecVpZnU PLEASE ALSO NOTE: The photos of the invisible ink pages in this listing do not do this book justice. The best looking picture I managed to get was the "MY MUSE WAS A MONSTER" page, and that's much closer to how bright the ink glows in person as long as you're in a dark room with a strong UV light (not included). If you still love Gravity Falls but were unable to get your hands on the Special Edition when it launched in 2017, please consider this one! Will pack very carefully for shipping with plenty of bubble wrap. I'll keep in mind not to crease the ribbons or fray the tassel as well. Thank you for your interest!
