This was another big project. I'd actually started it a couple of days ago, intending it to be my first pic of this character, only after I drew the pose, I realized it wasn't very good pose for showing off her whole outfit and her tools, so I did a different one as a reference. And now I've finished this one as well.
The toads in this one are
cameroo,
virmir,
destinyalphine, and Schnopszilla's (http://schnopszilla.deviantart.com ) sorceress, Kestra, all of whom at one point or another got too close to the bog witch and fell under the power of her swamp magic. But you don't need to worry too much. They love being toads; the spell compels them to. The other two toads are just toads. Not all of the bog witch's minions are people who she's transformed, some of them are just normal toads she's attracted with her magic.
Not entirely pleased with the background here. I got tired of working on it and just kinda copy pasted a lot of elements. Some of it's not so noticeable because most of the copied elements are really small (like the grass), but the trees in the background . . . those show the copy/pasting more than I hoped they would. And I'm guessing a lot on how some of it would look, so the perspective is a bit off.
Drew the bog witch completely by hand on paper first again, though I did cheat and use references for her feet after several failed efforts. God damn, feet are just as hard to draw as hands. Her face did not turn out quite as good as I'd hoped it would. It looked better on paper, but the scanner blurred the really small lines, so even though I had a drawing to work with, I still had to do some guess work and . . . it's a bit off. Not bad enough that I'm going to make a huge complaint about it or spend time redoing it, I'll just have to try harder next time.

I love it! I definitely love those area spells that compels them to obey/embrace their changes! I still love your ideas for that. The Toad Witch is still my favorite story and based on that awesome series we got from nojo!
Honestly, it's a start when it comes to drawing backgrounds. I'm pretty terrible at it myself, but don't feel ashamed to use references to help make it look better!

My problem was I couldn't actually find any references that fit what I want, so I was kinda guessing based on what I could find.
But yeah, the bog witch is a character I've neglected for a while, so I thought it was time to give her some love again. And add a few toads to her collection.
