I don't know, they look like acid rock album covers to me.

Besides, angels as described by the Bible don't look like men wearing white robes.

Seraphim were standing above Him; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. Isaiah 6:2

Here's how the cherubim looked to Ezekial:

Each one had four faces, and each one had four wings. 7 Their legs were straight, and the soles of their feet were like the soles of calves' feet. They sparkled like the color of burnished bronze. 8 The hands of a man were under their wings on their four sides; and each of the four had faces and wings. 9 Their wings touched one another. The creatures did not turn when they went, but each one went straight forward. 10 As for the likeness of their faces, each had the face of a man; each of the four had the face of a lion on the right side, each of the four had the face of an ox on the left side, and each of the four had the face of an eagle. 11 Thus were their faces. Their wings stretched upward; two wings of each one touched one another, and two covered their bodies. 12 And each one went straight forward; they went wherever the spirit wanted to go, and they did not turn when they went. 13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning. 14 And the living creatures ran back and forth, in appearance like a flash of lightning. Ezekiel 1:5-14

Frankie Schaeffer wrote a great book called "Addicted to Mediocrity". Christians have cast off the beauty that we can create to glorify God and worship Him through art. We simply do not glorify God in the way we could. This is a very good set of images and I wish more would cast off this addiction to mediocrity like Pat's. If there is disagreement with the way Pat has depicted Revelations in these images, I am sure there are others that could pick up a brush and create some better paintings and we should encourage them to do so.

Angels are differant creatures than the cherubims and the Seraphim.
One thing that was innacruate is the wings on the angels. I like the gate to the city picture!
