For Catholics Only: How would you imagine this?

Question

I've got an excerpt here from Revelations (trust me, I'm not preaching) and I was wondering if any of you have your own way of imagining the creature in this excerpt :)

"7 The appearance of the locusts was like that of horses ready for battle. On their heads they wore what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces, 8 and they had hair like women's hair. Their teeth were like lions' teeth, 9
and they had chests like iron breastplates. The sound of their wings was like the sound of many horse-drawn chariots racing into battle. 10 They had tails like scorpions, with stingers; with their tails they had power to harm people for five months. 11
They had as their king the angel of the abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon 6 and in Greek Apollyon."

I just asked this question out of fun cuz I like it when people use their imagination.

P.S.

I'll give my own portrayal later (running out of characters :p)

Have Fun!!

Okay, here's my depiction.

For me, these guys make me think of powerful humanoid mecha like the ones in Gundam and Neon Genesis: Evangelion.
I would describe describe them to have sharp crownlike decorations on the helmet and have thick powerful armor made from a special outer space metal. They're wings are also like those in Gundam and have powerful thrusters (hence the 'sound of many horse drawn chariots') The tails are definitely long and resemble a scorpions but are also capable of firing intense blasts of destructive energy like that huge scorpion in Zoids (neat eh?) The leader would probably be a special custom mecha and, as always, the one in charge.

I plan on being a writer and it really helps me when I share my creativity with other artists and fellow writers. That's one of the reasons I asked this question :)

P.S.
You don't have to just draw, you can write a detailed description too! Unleash your creativity!! ^^

Sadly, only one of you has actually tried to show me. The rest of you are just uptight geezers who can't let others have fun. Can't you read? I said use your imagination!!!

Another thing, I chose Catholics cuz from what I've seen in this category, they're the only ones who don't attack other groups with so much enthusiasm.

P.S.
Memory, thanks! I'm looking forward to it. I'm also looking for a place where I can do something like this without some uptight hater-wannabes who just answered my question for points.

Answer 1

I'll honestly draw it and come back with the link later.

EDIT: Scanner isn't working :\ if you wanna check out some of my art though here's the site http://lifeoguyy.deviantart.com/gallery/

i'll throw up the locust soon, hopefully :\ i think i gotta reconfigure a few things or reinstall the drivers for the scanner... w/e i'm not gonna worry too much about it right now.

Answer 2

Since Catholics are taught not to read their Bibles (so as they might find out the truth of their false religion) I'll answer for them:
verse 7 depicts strength and speed
verse 8 the hair depicts attractiveness;the teeth depicts cruelty
verse 9 the breastplates of iron depicts invincibility;horse-drawn chariots racing into battle depicts calamity
verse 10 : These facts reinforce the gruesome portrait of life upon earth as the pit of the abyss is opened and the convicts od the ages(the fallen angels) are released.
verse 11: This king is named in both Hebrew and Greek. Abaddon is Hebrew.The term,found only this one time in our English Bible , is found six times in the Hebrew Bible (Job 26:6;28:22;31:12;Psalm 88:11;Proverbs 15:11; and 27:20) The Greek for,Apollyon,means 'the destroyer' a word the certainly desribes Satan.

Answer 3

Dragonflies?

Answer 4

Everybody knows this passage refers to to the Beatles. (hair like women's hair, "iron breastplates on their chests" [electric guitars], sound of their wings like ... rock music to Christian ears in the 60's...tails like scorpions...wires to the guitars...
