A hand-drawn, all-caps-and-lowercase print face built from thick, brush-like strokes with sharply angled terminals and noticeably irregular outlines. Forms lean subtly in a backslanted direction, with uneven stroke edges and occasional wedge-like joins that create a cut-paper or carved-mark feel. Proportions are compact and generally tall, while spacing and letter widths vary enough to keep the texture lively and non-mechanical. The lowercase carries a straightforward, printed structure (single-storey a and g), and numerals follow the same rough, chiseled rhythm for consistent color in display settings.
Best suited for display typography where texture and attitude are desired—posters, headlines, event flyers, album/cover art, zines, and bold social graphics. It can also work for short packaging phrases or game/entertainment titles where a hand-made, edgy voice helps set the mood.
The overall tone is energetic and confrontational in a fun way—more zine, street-poster, and DIY than polished handwriting. Its jagged brush gestures and irregular rhythm read as spontaneous, expressive, and slightly chaotic, making the voice feel youthful and rebellious rather than refined.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, forceful marker or brush lettering with deliberately imperfect contours, prioritizing character and impact over uniformity. Its backslanted stance and angular cuts suggest a goal of conveying motion and DIY urgency while remaining legible as a printed hand.
The heavy silhouette and angular counters create strong impact at larger sizes, while the intentionally uneven edges and variable widths can introduce visual noise in dense paragraphs. The backslant and spiky terminals give words a sense of motion, and the sample text shows a pronounced, gritty texture line to line.
