Descriptions of Horus vs Images of him.

Maybe it is just me, but when reading HH books with the descriptions of Horus, I don't imagine him in the Terminator armour with no peripheral vision and huge quantities of plugs in his bald scalp.

I was just looking at the picture that is here : http://www.blacklibrary.com/Images/BL/blog/2010/07/Age2.jpg

And while it is a nice fearsome depiction, that is completely at odds with the charasmatic, standing on the bridge looking out into space, wounded unto death by the anethma character I have in my head.

Anyone else, or am I the only one ?

I would take this zas being artistic license drawn from by someone who didn't actually witness the events in question. For a start Horus should be wearing a sorta minty green armour iirc( can't remember wether his armour was black in any of the HH books and i've not read all of them) i'm pretty sure the armour of the Sons of horus wasn't painted black until a long time after the HH
