“Ok, so the original one is out of my budget, so today we are making the absolute best version ever made, which is like 100 times cooler than the original one. You know, just a normal Saturday…”
@@Bertoforeverno problem, man. When I say this is 100 times cooler than the original one, I mean it. The mass produced one lacked the authenticity of those imperfections. For me, you not only made it yourself, you made it real. You wouldn’t believe to how many people I sent this. A true masterpiece.
this is way cooler than a mass produced book! I wanted to do this for the longest time but money is tight and buying materials is kind of off the table for me. thank you for this video, the craftsmanship is really impressive and I bet a lot of people will find it useful for making their own journals!
You actually fixed something that bugged me about the journals. I mean, that thing spent 30 years closed inside a log thats in a big, wet forest...how can it look so pristine?
This is insanely well done! The amount of dedication is honestly mind blowing, it’s fun to see gravity fall fans being revived even after the show ended so long ago!
This is a masterpiece but if you are done with this maybe you can make a book of bill one,also remember to make journal 1 not look warm out or dirty cause Stan had it.bye gold bye!👁️
@@Bertoforeverokay but when making journal 1 I think it should not be dirty cause Stanley had it for 30 years it probably be cleaner cause he took good care of the journal
Thank you so much! Also I'm your guy! As soon as I'm done making the pages I'll be making the covers of the other two! But it'll probably just be the covers since not all the pages inside have been shown
@@Bertoforever how about you make the blueprint for the portal and start it up I mean that would be a great idea!!! (Totally not bill cipher in disguise)
this is SO rad and I hope more people see this !!!!always wanted to make one as well but It seems like a lot and as a perfectionist Ik that if it doesn't turn out looking as good as yours then ill be dissapointed.
Hey I know you've probably gotten a comment like this before but for someone who might want to do something similar, I was wondering where did you get the blank journal you used for the base of the replica?
🤣 the video was originally only ment for the tiktok but someone convinced me to start posting on youtube so I tried my best to squeeze it but 4:3 was the best I was going to get
WOW this is gorgeous! the intricacies of this is so insane! whereabouts did you get the book you're using to craft the journal? (or did you bind it yourself?) i've been desperately wanting my own journal of a similar caliber but not sure if i'll be able to craft one myself - so far, the closest thing i could find were the journals off of epica (which DO look gorgeous, but I'm trying to reason with myself if i really need to spend 100+ dollars on a journal haha. the craftsmanship definitely deserves the price, though!) edit: my apologies, i found where you got it by digging through the comments haha! i got a little too excited and typed before thinking. this still looks phenomenal, will definitely keep up with your progress! your crafting abilities are to die for 🌟
No worries! Thank you so much for the support! Yes I got the journal on Amazon from a company called nomadcraftsco, it's the 8x6 journal and the pages come pre weathered! I bet your journal is going to come out AMAZING!
@Bertoforever Of course!! And thank you so much!!! Im honestly so glad that through your craft i can also witness the durability of the paper, haha (I needed something that could withstand ink wash and water color!) Funnily enough, rewatching gravity falls has helped me out of my art block and inspired me to journal again, which is exactly why i was looking for a journal like this! But honestly now I want to try my hand at crafting my own special edition as well. It looks like such a fun project! You've certainly inspired me!
This is insanely good omg!! If possible, could you tell me where you got the sketchbook from? I've been wanting to make my own journal for forever but I've never found a sketchbook that's so perfect for the project
You were looking at the wrong book, that was the special edition. If you don't want to sell a kidney just go to target and buy the nomal one. Hope this helps. 🙂
@@Bertoforever oh thanks!!! Which one was the 18g brass detail and the 30g one? English is not my main language, so I couldn't quite understand this part 💔
Im gonna buy the brass too can you tell me the thickness you used for the hand and the corner protectors im afraid ill buy a brass thats too thick to cut with scissors
Bro imagine how sweaty the book would be after being held under dippers arm for the whole show 💀🙏
Haha yeah
Lmao especially how nervous he is all day 🤣
Shut up and take my like

Disney channel logic (in all seriousness how is it looks so new)
Very true !
Someone commented that journal 1 should still have a nice red since stan was taking care of it, love that idea !

the kidney thing is so real, like do i reeeeally need a kidney? cause i need that darn book lol. anyways this is so cool and you’re so talented 🫡👌

Man, This is EXTREMELY underrated, this needs more recognition!, keep up the great work!
also, how no one noticed the secret code?, does anyone already figured it out?
Thank you! Also you're the second person to notice lol
I also made a better Journal 3 recently! Synchronicity is fun
Amazing job!
I bet your journal is amazing!
I love that the Gravity falls community keeps doing awesome stuff like this! Take your like
