Attentive Scribe?
I would have thought that I'd get this the first time through because I'm the kind of person who obsessively clicks on every corner, but I've now gotten every achievement EXCEPT this one.

Would someone be willing to post screenshots of their completed journal so I can try to figure out which drawing(s) I'm missing?

I was also in your situation, but managed to complete this achievement during my second run to get the time-based ones. I found there to really only be two areas with miss-able sections of the journal (the rest seem to come automatically while advancing the story.) I had missed the first but I include both in case it helps:

In Chapter Four: on the level of the tower with the large table where miniature buildings rise up from it, there are numbers written on each wooden post surrounding the table. They are only visible if you use your sphere lens thing, but you have to zoom in on each one to write the number in the journal. There are 6: 0507, 1015, 2031, '{ }', 8127, and '<<'.

In Chapter Five: While exploring the scriptorium, make sure you zoom in on each of the sarcophogi to write each letter and its encoded character in your journal. you should end up with 8 of them: CEDO NULI

I did all the chapters twice and still for chapter 4 where you need to use the Occulus (time sphere) to get the numbers/symbols on the poles it shows up in journal when I am in chapter 4. But after I get to the end of the game I rechecked journal and all the numbers and symbols in Chapter 4 are gone. Only the "Chain" picture shows in the journal. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Sorry for bumping an old thread but there's one more sketch that is quite easy to miss.

In chapter 2 (the labyrinth in the garden), you're supposed to open a panel with four screws showing symbols on the metallic alms box on the left-hand side of the gazebo. The intention is that you realize in your own time, that you can't move a plant pot because the plant already grown, but the machine is working in your own present. So your character makes a sketch of the position of those four dials, you go back in time and use the same settings and move the plant pot in the past.

In my game, the game didn't register properly to sketch that information. After completing the puzzle, you can still use the oculus to go to the past and record the sketch. But make sure to check that you have that sketch before leaving the gazebo for the last time.

Here's a list of the missable sketches

I have also this problem, can you tell me your solution?
