The "4" is Cherokee for "se".
I don't suppose you can tell me if the rest is correct? Or which spelling of Sequoia/Sequoyah is the proper one?
Or for that matter what his name means?
All I can think of at the minute is "Has tree named after him" and "Writes alot" [Wink]

Sequoia means "Guessed it".

Here's a chart of Cherokee letters and according to this page, there are three possible spellings: Sequoya, Sequoia, and Sequoyah.

Nice work, Kris. I do prefer the new night sky / forest look over the multiple sequoias.

I'll have to send you a new sketch of the ship sometime, though. [Wink]

I shouldn't worry too much about the appearance of the ship on the development patch since I have a rule that if a patch does show the ship's design then that design must not represent the final appearance of said class but an earlier concept that was around when the patch was drawn.
See my Antares, Constitution and enterprise class patches which all conform to this rule.

I'm just about to start work on revamping the Surak-Class patch so to keep the thread warm I thought I'd share an WIP image of the Iso I'm in the process of drawing.

This is of course based directly off one of Rick Sternbach's original concept sketches for the T'Pau.
