A hand-drawn print face with thin, brush-like strokes and noticeably tapered terminals that often finish in sharp points. Letterforms are built from quick, confident gestures with slight waviness and irregular curves, producing an intentionally uneven baseline rhythm and varied glyph widths. Curved characters (C, O, S) show open, sweeping arcs, while diagonals and joins (K, M, N, W, X) feel angular and slightly jagged. The overall texture is light and open, with modest contrast that reads as pressure variation from a pen or brush rather than strict geometric construction.
Best suited to display settings where a handmade texture is desirable—posters, book or game covers, packaging, and short headlines. It can work for brief, larger-size copy in themed layouts, but the irregular rhythm and thin strokes favor generous sizing and spacing for clarity.
The tone is informal and expressive, balancing a playful, storybook charm with a slightly eerie, ink-scratch edge. Its spiky terminals and lively movement give it personality and motion, making text feel handmade and spontaneous rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to simulate quick ink lettering—an expressive, brush-pen print style that prioritizes personality, texture, and gesture over uniformity. Its pointed terminals and varied stroke energy suggest a deliberate move toward a slightly dramatic, illustrative voice for titles and atmospheric branding.
Uppercase and lowercase differ in character: caps tend to be more dramatic and angular, while lowercase forms are simpler and more relaxed, with occasional exaggerated ascenders/descenders and looped or hooked strokes. Numerals share the same drawn quality, with open, slightly irregular shapes that reinforce the handmade texture.
