I've been threatening to do this for a few years now... but with the imminent release of FC: Distant Kingdoms - I just had to paint another Lyran "Panther" class light cruiser:
I hope everyone enjoys it:

Look above the box you type your post in.
See the buttons "Bold", "Italics", etc. The last one is "URL".
When you highlight it, it shows the formatting for adding a hyperlink:

So, does it have a contingent of female nurses it picked up from a stranded colony? And is it the first target of any opposing (and maybe allied) battle fleet?

Nope - you've associated it with the wrong TV show...

Okay, does it have a small cartoon inspector (Inspector Clou-so-draxx)? And is it thermally protected?

I was picturing Peter Sellers on the bridge as an exchange officer.
Nice job, as always Tony (if unorthodox).

I couldn't resist painting the "Pink Panther". It was my favorite Saturday morning cartoon when I was gowing up.
Now, it's my favorite Lyran ship, too.

Her Majesty may be sending you a bill for a new keyboard as my coffee and I parted company when I opened the first picture!
Nice one Scoutdad!

I like that!
Makes me wish I had more Pirate Raiders to paint. I'd do one for myself.

Cool! Pardon the pun.
With all these pirates around, I'm jonesing to get more freighters, frigates and police ships painted up!

I've got 14 small / large freighters nearing completion and half a dozen Police Ships scheduled to be done after that.
Photos forthcoming...

Starnite - That is creative and just darn cool. More than just a paintjob, it's a back-story.
