TIG: Character visualisation of Vencel

[Brian]

First, the descriptions in Tigana are excellent. Quite often when I read books I tend not to visualise characters but I find myself picturing many of Kay's.

That said, though, I cannot help but to see Vencel as Jabba the Hut. Then I wound up seeing Dianora as Princess Leia.

[Brian]

Well, if he did fall down, he'd need Life Call.

[Jay]

I actually pictured Dom Deluise sitting on his cushion as Ceasar in "History of the World". "Treasure Bath! Treasure Bath!"

[Brian]

Haha! That works too.

[Kristen]

I had issues not picturing Jabba the Hut for Vencel -- I kept trying to move my mind to a different image, but it wasn't working.

[Brian]

Oh, good. I'm not the only one.

Unless I planted the idea into your head in which case I sincerely apologise.

[Kristen]

No need to apologize, it was all my own mind that did it, and I am rather relieved that I'm not the only one, too!

[Javier]

I pictured him as Haroun El Poussah (though lying in his bed, surrounded by pillows, not standing like in the article image).

Like a pale, less scaly Jabba the Hut. Or a much fatter George Constanza.
