A chunky, rounded display face with heavily filled strokes and uneven, hand-rendered contours. The outlines wobble and swell, with visible interior scuffs and small voids that create a printed-ink texture rather than clean vector precision. Terminals are soft and bulbous, counters are irregular, and stroke joins feel organic, giving each glyph a slightly different silhouette and rhythm. Overall spacing appears tight and compact, with lively inconsistencies that read as intentional distressing.
Best suited for display settings where texture and personality are an asset: posters, playful branding, packaging accents, stickers, and short headline treatments. It can add a handcrafted, rough-printed feel to themed graphics and title cards, especially at medium to large sizes where the interior texture is visible.
The font conveys a mischievous, crafty tone—like marker lettering or thick paint pressed through imperfect printing. Its roughened interiors and bouncy shapes give it an energetic, informal personality suited to lighthearted or offbeat themes.
Likely designed to mimic thick, hand-inked lettering with intentional wear and uneven pressure, delivering a bold presence while keeping a casual, imperfect charm. The goal appears to be immediate visual flavor and thematic texture rather than refined, text-heavy typography.
Despite the distressed detailing, the letterforms remain broadly familiar and readable in short bursts, with the texture providing most of the character. The numerals match the same swollen, ink-worn look, helping headings and badges feel cohesive.
