Thank you ^^ Actually I've "borrowed" this techique from Alfons Mucha True, he did it a bit differently (used white paint instead of crayon), still, the look of the style kept me interested.
Up until I tried it myself and fall in love with it
Mucha actually made his "sketches" like this ^^ I'm sure you could find some on the net too if you look around

its a fanfic
all the characters look the same but i added one, which is meand there's also a fire demon, Kelala from Inuyasha, i'll give u a description of the character of me and her background so u knw a little bit about her
my fanfic spans the whole 3 books, and im planning to write 3 other fanfics continued after LotRs.............but u dnt need to knw them yeti have Alassea's traveling gown(Alassea's the lead Elfs name, which means Kris in Elvish)
i'll scan it in tomorrow so u can see
i can wait until ur ready, just message myget my email from my page and email me and tell me its u so u knw

heres her description:
name - Alassea Tasadur
hair - (at first before Lothlorien) dark blonde, (wakes up in Lothlorien)brighter than Legolas's
eyes - (at first before Lothlorien) yellow, (wakes up in Lothlorien) emerald green
powers(shes a grey Elf witch before Lothlorien) - can change herself into any animal[only herself], can read people's mind, has power over water[only with a source], can give people the ability to talk with her in their minds untill she lets go, levitates, (wakes up in Lothlorien) power over all four elements[with or without a source]

history:
-parents died when she was 1071 by the Balrog of Moria and it made a mark on her back; from her shoulders to the small of her back
-adopted by her uncle, Lord Elrond
-raped at the age of 1746 by her ex-lover, Orophin: has hair as black as midnight, deep dark piercing menacing blue eyes

weapons:
-bow and arrow of Lothlorien
-daggers(6)[1 on her right side, 1 on either side of her legs, 1 on each of her thighs, 1 between her breast]
-sword(given to her by her Grandmother, Lady Galadriel)the sword belonged to her father, looks like a samurai sword and can kill an orc in one slice, called Lacho-lhun(blue flame)
