A heavy, hand-drawn display face with brush-like strokes and noticeably ragged contours. Letterforms are built from chunky, simplified shapes with uneven stroke endings, occasional ink blots, and slightly wobbly stems that create a lively, irregular rhythm. Curves are broadly rounded while joins and terminals often look torn or dry-brushed, producing a textured silhouette; counters stay fairly open for the weight, though they vary from glyph to glyph. Overall spacing and widths are inconsistent in a natural, handmade way, emphasizing a casual, constructed-by-hand presence over geometric regularity.
Best suited to display work where texture is an asset: posters, event flyers, album covers, game or entertainment graphics, packaging accents, and short headline phrases. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want an intentionally imperfect, handmade look, but the heavy texture may be less effective for long paragraphs at small sizes.
The font reads as raw and energetic, with a mischievous, crafty tone—more zine and stencil-marker than polished branding. Its rough edges and inky personality suggest spontaneity and a bit of grit, while the friendly proportions keep it approachable and playful rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to capture a tactile, ink-on-paper feel—like a brush marker or rough print pulled from imperfect edges—while staying legible in bold display sizes. Its irregular rhythm and distressed contours prioritize character and atmosphere, adding instant grit and personality to short text.
Capitals and lowercase share the same chunky, brushy construction, which helps the face feel cohesive in mixed-case settings. Numerals match the textured stroke behavior and maintain the same irregular edges, reinforcing the distressed, printed-by-hand impression in headlines and short callouts.
