A slanted, brush-pen style with heavy strokes and pronounced texture, as if printed from a dry, ink-loaded marker. Letterforms have tapered terminals, occasional blunt starts, and irregular stroke edges with visible speckling and small voids throughout the fills. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with bouncy widths and lively curves; counters are often tight and sometimes partially closed by the rough texture. The overall rhythm is energetic and informal, with a handwritten consistency rather than strict geometric construction.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as posters, punchy headlines, packaging callouts, and merch graphics where the textured brush character can be a feature. It can also work for event promos and social graphics that benefit from a raw, handcrafted voice, while longer paragraphs may feel heavy due to the dense inking and distressed interiors.
The font reads as gritty and expressive, conveying a DIY, street-poster attitude with a friendly, spontaneous warmth. Its distressed inking adds a worn, analog feel that suggests motion and immediacy rather than polish. The slant and brushy joins push it toward a dynamic, upbeat tone suitable for attention-grabbing messaging.
Likely designed to emulate fast brush lettering captured through imperfect printing or scanning, preserving ink breakup and edge wear for an authentic, analog look. The goal appears to be high impact and personality over precision, offering a bold handwritten voice with built-in texture for instant atmosphere.
Texture is a defining feature at all sizes shown, so the face will visually darken in dense settings where the speckling and rough edges accumulate. The numerals match the letterforms with the same slanted, brush-drawn construction and irregular weight distribution, reinforcing the handmade impression across the set.
