Description Here we have the 3rd most popular Wonderbolt, who perhaps got a nice popularity lift thanks to her hilarious (and possibly head-wound inspired) crush on Big Mac in the official comic. We don't know too much about Fleetfoot, other than that she's possibly the fastest of the Wonderbolts (as seen by winning the Derby) and that she's a surprisingly good stalker despite wearing a loud spandex flight-suit. I'd be happy if she became a recognizable, recurring addition to the flight team's roster in the show itself though.

As for the team itself, I suspect we'll get some further developments on Dash's dream to join them in the coming season... "Wonderbolts Academy" had a rather ambiguous ending making it a bit unclear just what Dash's status was. I understand that ending was rewritten at some point, possibly to purposefully leave room for further exploration once they knew they were definitely going to do a Season 4?

The wonderbolts are pretty great, I like how percicely you draw and detail their flightsuits. (And those goggles are AMAZING)

I do not blame her for having a crush on Big Mac, I'm pretty sure everypony does. She's just one of the first we see depicted openly (and not caused by arcane power). She has good taste in men.

Just wonder if you're considering doing a portrait of Nightshade and/or the other Shadowbolts?

Out of the named Wonderbolts, she's the one we know the least about. Supposedly, she's the fastest, so there's a real possibility she'd be the one Dash would turn to if she wanted to up her game.

Admittedly, there's only so much variation you can do and keep relatively on model, but I do like there to be some difference as well.  Thanks!

Saying that someone is "Fleetfooted" means that they are very fast, so out of the three of them she could be the fastest or at least more agile. If we do see more of the Wonderbolts in the show thanks to "Wonderbolts Academy" I hope we get to see the other two, Soarin and Fleetfoot.

harwicks-art In reply to Fist-of-doom [2013-10-09 19:00:11 +0000 UTC]

Soarin and Spitfire are the two "main" Wonderbolts, with set voice actors.  I was a bit sad that Soarin didn't make an appearance in that Season 3 episode, but I think the chances are good for next season.

harwicks-art In reply to Akernis [2013-10-09 18:58:55 +0000 UTC]

She's a "background" Wonderbolt, even though she was named in the episode, so I figured she was a good one to start with in this series.

I'm not gonna lie, but for the longest time I thought Fleetfoot was a stallion hehehe.
And I loved her crush on Big Mac from the comics (BigFoot for life lol).
Anyway, this is such an amazing picture.

Well, some animals have to have feet in Equestria.  We don't have hooves, but the term doesn't confuse us any... and we even use "hoofer" as slang for a human dancer.  So I can see a pony with this name.

BoneSatellite In reply to harwicks-art [2013-10-10 07:37:35 +0000 UTC]

That's partly what makes him such an interesting superhero. Kick-Ass 2 didn't strike the right balance.

Super is also a good example.

I was under the belief that the Academy was more or less ROTC for the Wonderbolts, like it doesn't mean you're getting in... but it doesn't hurt.


But I could be horribly mistaken.

harwicks-art In reply to Gunflame345 [2013-10-09 18:53:01 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, they've left things hard to pin down.  I would assume that one only gets into the Wonderbolts when a spot on the roster opens up, regardless of your talents.

Pretty much this. In the last scene of the episode (wich got cut because of time restraints btw.), RD remarks that she isn't in, but that they got their eyes on her.
