one of the two front pole things is shorter than the other.
and I think you plan to have the sides of it have "feet" like that at the bottom with the empty space then the front/back should have "feet" too, and not be solid as shown. Admittedly I don't know what this ark thing is, so if that's neccesary to the design then just ignore me, but if it's just fanciful or if there is room for artist license then I'd keep them all the same.

also, how do the poles attach? right now they just run along the side, are there gojng to be brackets or ropes holding them on?

The Ark of the Covenant was the container in which Moses placed the remains of the original stone tablets which had the Ten Commandments on them. It also conatined the golden container of 'hidden' mana and Aarons budding rod.

It had to have poles on either side to carry it because if you touched it, you would die.

Looks good so far, I would drop the rods for now.

I haven't updated because I'm working on the stupid lid.

The lid has two angels kneeling with their wing outstretched, covering the top of the lid where they used to sprinkle the blood as an offering to God.

Hmmm...
