Niki Lauda — Sunday 28th March 1976 Long Beach - Preparing Shortly Before the Race, Niki Would Finish P2

It took a long while, but finally I finished colouring this black-and-white photo.

Everything has been colour matched to be as accurate as possible to how it was in real life, guided by other colour photos of the event. Though, some exceptions had to be taken, such as the hair and clothing colour of background people.

Not a big fan of the pro-religious left cause it's always 'you ought to respect people's strongly held spiritual beliefs' like ok I'm not joking when I say maybe you should have more respect for my strongly held belief that none of this shit is real

"Why can't the freaks on AO3 just go and make a site for all the gross stuff and leave AO3 alone."

Because AO3 is that site. Because AO3 was that site long before you decided AO3 was better than the sites you bullied us off of before, and I can promise you if someone somehow comes up with a fanfic site you like better specifically for the 'gross stuff' you'll try to bully us off that too so you can benefit from it.

AO3's specific core purpose is to preserve fanfiction, yes, but it was also instigated as a host site for the fanfiction that kept getting yeeted off other platforms like Wattpad. Its designed to preserve all fanfiction, not just the fanfiction you, personally, think is 'allowed' to be written.

AO3 is the site for all the gross stuff the freaks make. We've been there just as long as you. We've been funding it just as long as you have. AO3 has specifically said you have a place here. The timeline was literally:

Wattpad/FF.net/LiveJournal purge fanfics > AO3 is born > The people who's fics got purged moved over to AO3 > AO3 gains popularity as the best functioning site > The people who pushed for the fics to be purged off Wattpad move to AO3 > The same people try to push for AO3 to purge fics.

AO3's source coding is open-access. You go make a polished, strict, rigid site where nothing 'icky' is allowed. You go make a site where you can control what is hosted. We already have our space.

Gang, I don't think anything will be topping a user having to explain the concept of a 3D shape to a mod

Whenever I need my blood pressure raising, I go to the skin and accent problems forum thread and read the rejection reasons

The Nürburgring is my House, I swear to fucking god. Is this how Niki felt.

Your boy submitted his first DMCA takedown, I'm finally a real artist
