Sometimes you have to redraw things

I'm working on inking pages for The Card Cheat pitch. Marc and I have had a lot of conversations about tone, attitude, and where The Card Cheat fits in the 'genre' world.
Because of those conversations things shift a bit in the storytelling. Spot a few more blacks, mean up some dialogue, change a few words. Nothing big really, but sometimes I've gotta suck it up and redraw a panel that really isn't working.
I don't do it too often because it's not good process or very fair to the writer (who has reviewed all the pencils at this point). But now and again, I do it because I feel like the story is better served.
Luckily enough, in this case I was right and Marc agreed.
