Did you put the wrong Isabel in the loading screen?

OK, this is silly and harmless, but it made me laugh when I saw it. I love the concept of national leaders as loading screens. But it seems that your artist drew Isabel II of Spain when he probably intended to draw Isabel I . Isabel II reigned from 1843 to 1868, well outside the game's timeframe.

You can either draw the right Isabel or run with the joke and include Elizabeth II of England in the screens.

Isn't she more like Catherine II of Russia?

Isn't she more like Catherine II of Russia?

I don't think so:

Same hairdo, same crown, same dress, etc.

It IS an Isabella, no doubt of that.

Thanks to this, I have learned that other white people all look the exact same to me. This is not the kind of jarring personal realization I wanted to start my morning off with.

That's pretty funny if it was a mistake. Nice find, i would never have noticed.

Hah, reminds of the fact that Firaxis have a 3D model of Eric XIV and not Gustavus in Civ5. Seems like royalty really confuses modern artists! Oh and btw, I do love the art of EUIV. Feels very renaissance :happy:

Indeed it is the wrong Isabella, very observant.
Current Isabella has been removed and a correct one will be added in time.

So did someone got a rap on their fingers for that?

Not as bad as Napoleon's leg though.

On the plus side, the artwork could make a nice poster for Victoria II...

You havent seen that first artwork cover of EU1 (was it EU1?) that had "Nappleon" on it? (or something similar)

 

[monsterfurby]

Well, now you need a loading screen reminder that reads "Don't confuse Isabella II with Isabella I!"

 

[hjarg]

Heh, and i was pretty sure she was Catherine Well, guess someone googled queen Isabella

 

[InnocentIII]

You have to sneak QE2 in somewhere, her majesty's a pretty nice gal.

 

[Idiotboy]

Tis funny about this forum with these small things. :wub:

If I was on the Rome 2 forum they´d probably be buried under 1000 whines about "MOAR blood and cut off heads when I zoom in".

The seventh image on Google is Isabela II mislabeled as Isabela I, which is probably the culprit. Although its hard ignoring all those different looking images of the real Isabela I.
