Hey guys I've slowly been getting things uploaded. I'm really excited about the Guardianship Saga. Its the Brainchild of Overcast Studios, which is a creative group of friends we formed to work on art and tell awesome stories. So if you sign up you will be getting the Guardianship Saga weekly journal updates. Directly from the main character Kael! An epic fantasy thats been years in the making. I'm working with some great talented friends on this. So as I am not the lead artist on this project I will be uploading plenty of cool stuff you may have not seen before! Thank for your interest!!

Hi I am Josh, a Co creator for The Guardianship Saga, and a Colorist, on the pages, found above in the weekly Wed. pages, I color the books in a Gray type of scale, in order to keep with the idea that the main kid in the story, is sketching in a journal, the many events along the way of this great adventure tale... Tyler and us guys, have been working on this story for years, and are very happy to have this opportunity share our story with you perhaps long time fans of Tyler's work, Hope you enjoy and keep coming back for more, story line and art, We are happy to answer any questions you may have, and to have the chance to get to know You!
