Description
Rainbow Dash has finally become a full fledged Wonderbolt. As is tradition, during the graduation ceremony she gets to fly with them for the first time!Just another boring routine flight, no surprises whatsoever, right?
----
As promised, my hastily put ATG entry [link] made at least 20% cooler!
Will this be the first cider R.D. rejects?
Is Soarin gonna eat that? Or is it gonna end up on R.D.'s face?
Nopony truly knows!
----
Edit: Added missing Wonderbolt suit marks.

I don't expect it to change their mind, though I have definitely influenced someone's opinion on how they can improve the quality of their art (to my large surprise, as you can imagine).

Thank you for sharing this.
Being sober myself, I cannot agree more. With skills I also meant the ability to get a point across without having to incur into, well, the scum of our world. I guess this concept was a bit forced, because ATG prompt deadline and what not.
I'll make sure to keep this in mind for future stuff. Though I'll have to admit I have a couple ideas that demand it, I'll try to avoid it when it's not the case, such as here.

You're welcome, I guess? You're free to draw this type of thing again. The most you'll get from me is probably another "thumbs down" or even a little mini-rant. If you want to abstain from drawing this sort of thing because you sincerely want to, then that's pretty cool. You don't have to impress me.

Yeah. We can't wait that day.
Wonderful work. I really like the way you've drawn their wings.

Love the idea, but Soarin looks a little old. Maybe take away the little wrinkle underneath his eye?

Soarin always has a little wrinkle underneath his eye. I wonder why tho.

Maybe he just doesn't get enough sleep.
My headcanon is that, since he is basically the image of the Wonderbolts (autographs/posters Spitfire signs), and their insignia is exactly the same as his cutie mark (maybe animators were lazy?) which he and only he wears while the others (Spitfire included) simply wear the bolt without wings - which I didn't fix cause I like it as it is - tells me that he might in fact be the founder of the wonderbolts.
As to why Spitfire is the captain, who knows. Maybe Soarin is retired, or he doesn't have the spare time anymore because of his probable military career? Since most real-life aerial show teams use combat aircrafts and the such.

I just knew those wings would look great in color!
If you're gonna embellish something while generally sticking to the show's style, wings are a great choice.
