A heavy, brush-driven italic with compact, rounded letterforms and visibly uneven contours. Strokes show strong pressure variation within a generally solid, filled-in silhouette, with roughened edges and occasional blobs that feel like wet ink or imperfect printing. Curves are slightly squarish in places, counters are small but open enough for display use, and terminals tend to be blunt rather than sharply tapered. The rhythm is lively and irregular, with small variations in stroke thickness, joins, and inner shapes that reinforce a hand-made texture across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, event promos, packaging labels, and merch graphics where texture is an asset. It also works well for branding in food, craft, music, or outdoor contexts that benefit from a rough, hand-made tone, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The font projects an energetic, scrappy character—part hand-painted sign, part worn stamp. Its rough texture and forward slant create a sense of motion and informality, giving text a casual, rebellious edge while still reading as friendly and approachable.
The design appears intended to mimic bold brush lettering with imperfect ink coverage, combining a forward-leaning stance with distressed contours to create instant personality. It prioritizes texture, movement, and an analog feel over pristine geometry, aiming for a lively, display-forward voice.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive brush/ink texture, and the numerals match the same chunky, hand-rendered feel. The overall color on the page is dense and dark, making the texture most noticeable at larger sizes where the irregular edges and counters can breathe.
