Not revealing Amon's face also seems similiar to the original series with firebending soldiers (horned helmets) and Ozai (shadowed) as they were more intimidating when you couldn't see their face, at least, that's what the idea was I think. In Korra we can 'see' Amon's full figure without having to resort to camera specific angles since we still don't know what his face is, building tension for when it is revealed.
