A hand-drawn print with wiry, brush-like strokes and subtly ragged edges that preserve the texture of a pen or brush on paper. Letterforms are narrow and lively, with uneven stroke terminals, small flicks, and occasional wedge-like accents that create a slightly scratchy silhouette. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, producing an organic rhythm; counters are generally open and simple, and the overall construction stays upright rather than slanted. The lowercase shows a compact x-height with tall ascenders, while capitals feel slightly more decorative, helping the font read clearly while still looking handmade.
Best suited to display use such as posters, book covers, themed packaging, and short headlines where its handmade texture can carry the design. It can also work for game UI labels, chapter titles, or pull quotes when you want an informal, storybook feel. For long passages of small text, use generous size and spacing to keep the irregular rhythm from feeling busy.
The tone is playful and characterful, like handwritten titling for a quirky story or a themed poster. Its irregularities add charm and a touch of the uncanny, making it feel at home in fantasy, Halloween, or folklore-adjacent settings without becoming overly ornate. Overall it communicates informal energy, curiosity, and a lightly dramatic flair.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident hand lettering with a brush or marker, prioritizing personality over geometric uniformity. It aims to deliver a readable print style while retaining visible human variation in stroke endings, widths, and spacing for a crafted, illustrative look.
The texture is consistent across letters and numerals, with simple, readable figures that match the same brushy modulation. In continuous text the lively stroke endings and variable letter widths become more noticeable, so the font reads best when the natural unevenness is treated as a feature rather than something to be smoothed out.
