Yes, we mustn't forget the six pairs of wings and wheels of eyes and fire.

And the bizarre fact that the four faces are of a man, lion, ox, and eagle.

(Good golly, you think Ezekiel was a bit out of his head when describing those things?)

Also: even when people don't describe cherubim as the four-faced hallucinogenic nightmares they are, they're still warriors. Like all the angels. Most depictions of angels in ancient art give all the angels weapons!

I have to wonder at what point in history people started nice-ifying the Soldiers of the Lord.
