The Holy Spirit doesn't look like anything. The Holy Spirit is Spirit.

In the past, the Holy Spirit has had the appearance of a dove (Matthew 3:16) or of tongues of fire (Acts of the Apostles 2:1-4), but that is not what the Holy Spirit "looks like." The Holy Spirit has no body.

How do you know he has no spiritual body?

Jesus is in heaven with his resurrected body. He looks like one of us (but glorified).

Remember that, before Jesus came down to Earth, he did not have a body, so the resurrected body is the only body that Jesus has.

So the Holy Spirit didnt look like anything?

That isnt the Jesus who ascended to heaven? The Jesus described as hair like wool. God is self existing, so there was a Jesus before he came down.
To Christians today, Jesus is indeed the great "I AM".
Look at Dan 7:9 and Reve

Daniel 7:
9 “I watched till thrones were put in place,
And the Ancient of Days was seated;
His garment was white as snow,
And the hair of His head was like pure wool
. [Revelation 1:14]
His throne was a fiery flame,
Its wheels a burning fire
;
13 Perceiving I was in visions of the night and behold! With clouds of the heavens as son of a mortal/man/0606 'enash arriving He was,
and unto ancient of the days He reached, and before HIM they bring near Him


John 17:11
And not still I-am in the world, and these in the world are,
and I near/toward/proV <4314> Thee am coming
........
Reve 12:5
.......and was caught-away the Child of her near/toward/proV <4314> the GOD and His throne.

Reve 1:14
His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; [Daniel 7:9]

Jesus ruling on the throne looks different from him as he comes back?

That should be a sight to see but probably not in my lifetime.
Let see where this form of the Greek word is used in Revelation.

Acts 1:
9 And these things having said -- they beholding -- He was taken up, and a cloud/nefelh<3507> did receive Him up from their sight;
10 and as they were looking steadfastly to the heaven in His going on, then behold! two men stood by them in white apparel,
11 who also said, 'Men!, Galileans!, why do ye stand gazing into the heaven?
This Jesus who was received up from you into the heaven, shall so come in what manner ye saw Him going on to the heaven
.'

Reve 11:12
And they heard a great voice out of heaven, saying to them, "Come up here."
And they went up to heaven in the cloud/nefelh<3507>, and their enemies beheld them
.
Reve 14:14
And I saw, and behold! a white cloud/nefelh<3507>, and upon the cloud one sitting like to a son of man,
having upon His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle

Christ is the ancient of days?
In answer to your question, the excerpt below pretty much expresses my perspective...

"The title "Ancient of Days" is found only three times in Scripture, all three in prophetic passages in Daniel 7:9, 13, and 22. Verse 22 refers specifically to Jesus whose judgment will be part of the end-times events. In Daniel 7:13, the term “ancient of days” refers to God the Father, and we see Him on His throne as Jesus, the “Son of Man” approaches the throne on clouds. God is a triune God, meaning three Persons in One, and at different times “Ancient of Days” refers to Jesus Christ and at other times, to God the Father. But in the prophetic sense, it clearly refers to Jesus, the Ancient of Days returning to pronounce judgment on the world (Daniel 7:22)."
What does it mean that God is the Ancient of Days?

Do you think after the judgement, the people are put into blackness or into a lavalike location?
The scriptures use a variety of descriptions to explain the destination of those who reject Christ and face God's judgment of eternal separation, such as; outer darkness, lake of fire, the wailing and gnashing of teeth. I think these descriptions, rather than to be taken completely literal, are given more to show the terrible condition of existence apart from God's Presence wherever the location.
