"Hound" is the big head-scratcher for me. Sketched a few days in advance but that one's a tough one to nail down.

maybe instead of using the noun "hound".....you use the verb "hound" instead

What you get may surprise you. Or not. We'll never know. Except for when I post it.

I'm never surprised. Ever.
Now, If you'll excuse me, I have a lair/room full of anger, sadness and misery to return to. Good day, sir.

Witchtober 6 - Garden. This one took too long, I did a challenge with less prompts in order to do less work, but I just take 2 or more days on everything now.

I wanna eat the ice cream in this picture so badly...
Also aaaah, your art is so nice! Been trying to be a bit more ambitious with backgrounds myself. I think I tend to struggle knowing how to layer backgrounds with characters. Any tips?

Hey thanks!
When it comes to environments, this might sound a lot like it's just semantics, but it helped my mindset a lot:
Don't treat Backgrounds and Environments as the same thing. Backgrounds are like what I did with the icecream witch: it's just stuff to fill in space behind the subject. I usually do that when there's not a lot of storytelling potential or I just need people to see the figure.
An Environment on the other hand is something the characters are in. There's an important distinction there, because now there's stuff all around them, and they can start interacting with it. Now they should interact with it. Their poses and positions now depend on what they're doing and where they're doing it. When I sketch, I usually do characters and environment at the same time. It's useful for checking scale and composition before getting too carried away on one element and realizing the other part isn't clicking. Like in this is an early WIP for an upcoming witchtober thing: 
I roughly outline the kitchen and figures at the same time, thinking about what to surround them with and where to pose some storytelling props in areas that help shape negative space and won't get smushed or overlapped. There'll be some perspective work eventually, but generally I try to do the sketch first and perspective later.

I finally had a bit of headway getting all the prompt stuff done on time for halloween, but then I started something that I want to spend my normal amount of effort on. Of course it was gonna be the demon prompt.
I do'd it! Witchtober 12 - Demon

In case ya missed it: Witchtober 15 - Moss
I didn't meet the deadline to do the final prompt, #16 "coven," but I would still like to do it sometime this month. I'll call it Witchvember and make it all November-y.
Huh, I wonder what these are for.
Posted these to another thread that I also created, so to have these here for consistency and avoid spam, I'll post them 3 at a time here.
10, 11 and 12. Only one more group of 3 to go~
13, 14 and 15. I'm still sleepy.
