A condensed, brush-pen style face with noticeably irregular stroke edges and dry-brush texture throughout. Letterforms show a lively, hand-drawn rhythm with fluctuating stroke thickness, tapered terminals, and occasional ink breaks that create a worn, printed feel. Proportions are compact with tight internal counters, and the overall texture reads dark and graphic in headlines while retaining a sketchy surface detail.
Best suited to short, impactful settings where texture is a feature: posters, event flyers, album artwork, apparel graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It also works well for energetic social media headlines and branded phrases where a handmade, rough-ink look is desired.
The font conveys a raw, handmade attitude—equal parts street, craft, and grunge. Its roughened ink texture and quick, gestural construction feel informal and energetic, with an intentionally imperfect finish that suggests motion and authenticity rather than polish.
The design appears intended to mimic quick brush lettering captured with imperfect ink flow, combining condensed display proportions with a deliberately distressed surface. It prioritizes character and texture over neutrality, aiming to provide a ready-made hand-rendered look for expressive titles and branding accents.
In running text, the heavy texture and condensed shapes can build strong visual density, especially where counters are small. Numerals and capitals maintain the same brushy construction, helping mixed content feel consistent for display use.
