A compact, hand-drawn print face with thick, inked strokes and visibly irregular contours. Letterforms are slightly condensed with bouncy proportions, variable stroke endings, and rough, blotted edges that mimic a marker or brush on textured paper. Counters tend to be small and uneven, curves are subtly lumpy, and verticals often wobble, creating an intentionally imperfect rhythm. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the handmade texture in both caps and lowercase, with sturdy numerals that match the same rugged cut.
Works best for short, high-impact text such as posters, display headlines, book or album covers, and themed graphics where a handmade, slightly eerie texture is desirable. It can also suit labels and packaging for craft or vintage-inspired products, especially when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels spooky and storybook-like, with a rustic, slightly chaotic energy. Its rough ink texture and uneven silhouettes suggest DIY craft, zine culture, or old-time poster lettering rather than polished typography, adding personality and a hint of mischief.
Likely designed to emulate bold hand-lettered brush/marker strokes with a deliberately rough finish, prioritizing character and atmosphere over geometric consistency. The goal appears to be an informal display font that instantly reads as hand-made and expressive in titles and branding.
Capitals read as poster-like and emphatic, while the lowercase keeps the same roughness but with a friendlier, more conversational flow. The texture is strong enough that very small sizes may look dense; it’s most convincing when the edges and blotting have room to show.
