Description Cheers to the third hundreds. Seven more to go.
My depictions of angels have changed considerably throughout the years and even when for special cases like this [link] I still use the "clasic" winged man depictions, I'm currently sticking to biomechanical, cosmic, stellar and semi-abstract designs.
I could have followed the conventional hierarchy of angels, but I just didn't felt like it.

306) Angels: Together for all eternity.

307) Ophanim: Wathcing now and forever.
"When they moved, the others moved; when they stopped, the others stopped; and when they rose from the earth, the wheels rose along with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels."

308) Seraphim: "Above Him stood the Seraphim; each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew."

309) Cherubim: To guard the light and the stars.

310) Archangel: "but as commander of the army of the lord I have now come"

311) Burning seraph: "and wholly purifying them by a burning and all-consuming flame; and by the unhidden, unquenchable, changeless, radiant and enlightening power, dispelling and destroying the shadows of darkness""

312) New bearers of light: Someone had to fit his role since he left.

313) Gavri: "Ibn Mas'ud informed us that the Prophet had seen Gabriel having 600 wings."

And I see one of the ophanim has the wings and halo so it can be recognized as an angel.

I have a character who is an ophanim and I'm planning on redesigning him so that he has a chariot wheel for a head and just a normal Angel body. And I'm gonna change his name.

as a Catholic i love this, it just shows that the Creator has a lot of creativity in this unfathomably big Universe, even other dimensions, the angels look pretty alien, my favorite is the Ophanim.

Well, this picture has done quite well, I could do a remake one day. I do have a completely different style for angels today, though.

Of course, I'll wait, I would like to see some other orders of angels, you're familiar with other representations of angels?

SomeKindaSpy [2014-11-03 09:34:26 +0000 UTC]

Also, I'm confused... Is "Gavri" just Gabriel, or is it a class of angel from this list?

SomeKindaSpy [2014-11-03 09:23:24 +0000 UTC]

These aren't labelled properly. The image says 301 when there is no 301 on the list.

As a Catholic I say you got this all right, the fact one type of angles is a sentient gyro wheel (more or less) just shows me how creative God is

Well, I tried to draw the celestial hierarchy myself but yours is just so much better in my opinion. Its very realistic to the point that I want this in my collection. I love angels and you just made my day!

I am very glad to know that you are sticking to the Bible here.
Just one thing.
Do you really believe that Angels are out there? And could you be able to draw a Nephilim?

Rodrigo-Vega In reply to TheLulustarz [2011-06-19 18:45:33 +0000 UTC]

I did draw a nephilim.. ugh... is somewhere around my gallery, I called it left side or something like that.
Fot a more developed opinion on angels find my "True Forms" image and read descriptions and comments.
Thanks!
