Basic Bitch to Sexy Witch - Oct 2018 Patron Request

Happy Spooktober!!
Hope you like this month's patron request! It's our first five-part sequence, thanks to reaching the $600/month goal!
I will say I struggled to figure it out. I can "cheat" a before and after, but the TF process in a sequence has to make sense. How does she change? Why? What's her reaction? What does "basic bitch" even mean nowadays?
I considered many variations. I wanted the whole thing to conform to my self-imposed theme of "people turning into their costumes". Maybe our protagonist is rewarded for enjoying her 1000th pumpkin spice latte? Eh. Maybe she's punished for hating the seasonal beverage? But then, becoming a sexy enchantress isn't quite torture.
I started by establishing the story's endpoints. On one hand, a "basic bitch" dressed like a witch, on the other, a curvy sorceress. I got the sexy-trashy witch outfit from this illustration by GarvGraphX and wanted a pinup-y feel for the final stage, like this image by Didi-Esmeralda.
Here's what I sketched:
I liked the classic pinup look but wasn't too happy with the overall flow. The mental change felt forced. However, I loved the idea of the broomstick flying in. The image of her hanging on in terror felt appropriately whimsical and Halloween-y. It also fit in with the previous victims' reactions. A photo I had saved to my reference folder years ago featured a similar pose and that settled it.
I might have meandered a while but I'm very happy with where I ended up. Hope you enjoyed our first longer patron request! Thanks for the support!

That's probably straight-up canon. :D

This is great! I love the surprise at being whisked away, and the stockings slowly creeping up her legs. It's a shame that that pin-up pose you had in the sketch couldn't be used, because that looked just marvelous, but I get what you mean about the mental change feeling forced. Personal head-canon: the pin up pose is her once she's gotten a handle on being a witch.

I really like the reaction of her hanging on to dear life as the broom whisks her away

Gothification is lovely
