Yeah I've been searching for quite a while and only stumbled on the girl at the very bottom of a search page looking at decals.
I haven't seen anything like the background and that is usually what I'm looking for.
I've also been looking for the Hog Wild pin up.
One of the press kit booklets just used a Varga Girl.
Y'all have been a treasure trove of information. I appreciate it. Two more questions:
1) Is 5.5 x 3.5 the "official" size of the diary?
2) What's the best way to weather the paper once everything's been added? Can you tea-soak a journal that's already bound, or should I try to do the pages individually and bind them later?
A fair point, and definitely something I'm worried about, too. However, I do want the writing and drawings to have that old, faded ink look to them... Perhaps I'll be sure to use a brown ink pen or something.1) I used the Large (13cmx21cm) moleskine sketchbook. Make sure its the sketchbook version because the pages are thicker which prevents the ink bleeding.
2) The best way i found was to individually weather the pages using a paper towel or sponge before you start drawing anything. If you weather it after you have done the drawings, it will probably ruin the drawings.

I guess I'm late here, but anyway, I think the first sentence isEl Dorado
Orígenes de Perú a bordó del Stefani Esperanza.
La estatua aparece ser hecha a mano de oro sólido, y ser embutida con muchas diversas piedras semipreciosas y preciosas.
Estas incluyeron turquesas, esmeraldas, rubíes, y las zafiras.
La estatua tiene un aspecto terrible, y ser (unreadable word) representa uno de los diablos adorados por los naturales.
Waiting for your corrections.
BT"I guess I'm late here, but anyway, I think the first sentence is
El Dorado
Partiendo del Perú a bordo del galeón Esperanza
and I think (unreadable word) is "sin duda" (means undoubttully)
If it's not too late to ask, in which order did you combine all these documents with Drake's pages? All images in the first pages of this thread are now gone from PhotobucketIn the process of making all the Uncharted books and some bits and pieces; thought I would put down my own findings and listed the order of the Pages from the two game versions (Collection and Original) - there are some discrepancy in the order and some pages.
Hopefully you guys can follow these notes
