Escort Service is the punnily named escort squadron of House Vardamir, that was coined by Rally when she got her escort ship and approved by Chanthima.
Artist's Notes: Several ideas are floating in my mind in regards to the logo of this squadron, but haven't really committed anything to "paper". One of these days the squadron patch will just show up.
For the longest time this was a squadron of one, with Chanth being the only one flying around in an escort. This has changed with the addition of ninjanabe, another wing member that uses an escort more often than not. So much so that Chanth has handed over the responsibilities of Squadron Commander to him.
Below are the individualized marking / paint schemes of the active Escort Service ships - more and more will be added as their respective pilots submit their marking / paint schemes. Click on the image to see a larger sized pic.

Artist's Notes: Following the pattern set by her Viper (see Strike Markings), I colored Chanth's escort in a similiar manner, using the color palette of Tawny's uniform. Nose art is a pic of Tawny Madison (played by Sigourney Weaver) from the move Galaxy Quest.

Artist's Notes: Following the pattern set by his Vanir (see Line Markings) in terms of color pattern and nose art, Galen's escorts uses the same colors as Space Battleship Yamato (aka Starblazers) and nose art are Leiji Matsumoto characters. Nose art for the Glaive is Maetel from the anime Galaxy Express 999, while the one on the Scythe is Queen Emeraldas from the anime of the same name - images found in various sites after a long search with Google-fu.
