^ Nailed it. Glad the drawing is similar enough that someone can pick out what was referenced. I hope to use a few more of his photos as reference in the near future. Incredible photographer.

He's definitely up there! Went to a talk he was giving once and he's seen some things! Looking forward to seeing more! @BloodnThunder

^^I bet. It's incredible the situations he had to have been in to take the pictures he has. Reminds me of Kevin Carter, took some incredible photos that were also heartbreaking. Definitely plan on keeping the ball rolling.

Put a solid 10 hours into this one yesterday. I'm calling it "Batman". The portrait is of Daniel Kish a man who was born blind and taught himself to 'see' via echo location.

Fascinating! I just googled it and it definitely resembles the same twelve point circle with which I begin my process. But that's just the starting point, there are eleven more steps for me. I've been using a twelve point circle as my daily journal for eleven years now, it's like my walking labyrinth, but with writing.
I draw lines and write on both sides, normally in cursive and normally rotating clockwise, here's a pic (please excuse the haphazard sketch, I'm out of the studio but wanted to roughly illustrate the process). I left out the last step just to keep some mystery ;):
And here's what it looks like when done:

Pulled together this custom bag strap for one of my bags.
Made it from:
-
50mm olive seatbelt webbing purchased from a Supplier to the British military.
-
50mm Austrialpin mil-spec Cobra buckle.
-
Mil-spec ITW Nexus tri-glide
-
Antique effect brass trigger snaps
Measuring, marking and cutting.
For sealing the edges of the webbing….
The finished article….
