Letters: pp16-17

working: p17 the old switcheroo

Bad scan but you can probably tell the bottom car is not a dodge charger anymore (chrysler 300)...not sure if the 300 works as the, "close to a charger", but the effect only has to last for one more panel really.

working: p17 refining poses and angles

changes in all panels except panel 5.
-panel 2 pulled brett back to make room for dialogue. changed expression on Seedless' face.
-panel 3 changed angle to show more expression. more interesting
-panel 4 changed angle of brett's head to make it more consistent with panel3, more expression, more naturalistic and more interesting.
-panel 6 changed the driver getting out of the car.
-panel 7 changed the drivers left arm
