I've been wondering for a while now about the eyes fasioned on the armour or both Horus and Sanguinius, what do they represent?

 

If its the eyes of Terra i wonder why they look soo.. malicious :lol: i can understand it on Horus after he went insane but before, i don't understand.

In Horus Rising, the symbol was called the Eye of Terra as it represented Terra seeking out all lost human worlds, when Kyril Sinderman was being escorted through the mountain an witnessed first hand the devastation the Astartes can unleash, he kept repeating great Terra over and over, until it sounded to him as Terror.

 

Naturally, the Eye came to represent to the traitors as where Gods and Mortals meet as the Word Bearers call it, we can assume that after the Heresy that the eye of terra was dropped consider the ill omen of it.

Sanguinus's are actually blood drops, due to the heraldry of his legion.

 

You can just about distinguish the difference if you look hard enough.

 

Agreed. You can see the tear (or blood) drop shape in most pictures, black against the red of the circle.
