It shows Shing Chih with a sword sticking through her neck! I look at it every time I start the game and it's beginning to bother me
It's in the banner at the top of this screen too! ^ But actually she is just holding the sword backhanded with her arm raised - so the sword tip is pointing toward her chest!
The one in full view is bent (away from viewer) making the arm look much shorter than its true length.
Never noticed that. Was too preoccupied by Blackbeard being the only one of the bunch who looks like he's been to a dentist.
Also, fun fact of the day - it took us a few weeks to realise we'd missed Jeanne de Berry and Black Bart off the loading screen renders.
