Blackletter Igva 6 is a very bold, narrow, medium contrast, upright, tall x-height font visually similar to 'Ghimli' by Anonymous Typedesigners, 'Flower' by Graphicxell, 'Tusker Grotesk' by Lewis McGuffie Type, 'Midnight Wowboy' by Mysterylab, 'Beni' by Nois, and 'Herokid' by W Type Foundry (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy display face with compact proportions, flared terminals, and a subtly undulating vertical rhythm that makes strokes feel carved and elastic rather than purely geometric. Stems often bulge and pinch, creating inward notches and soft points that echo blackletter structure while staying blunt and poster-friendly. Counters are relatively tight, joins are assertive, and many forms show slight internal shaping that reads like chiseled facets. Overall spacing appears tight and the texture is dense, producing strong silhouettes and high visual impact.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headline typography, event branding, logotypes, packaging fronts, and signage where the bold silhouette can do the work. It can also add character to titles or pull quotes, but the dense interior shapes suggest using generous size and careful tracking for longer passages.
The tone blends old-world gothic cues with a show-poster boldness: theatrical, slightly mischievous, and attention-seeking. The wavy, flared shaping adds a vintage carnival/western energy, making the alphabet feel lively rather than solemn.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, decorative blackletter-inflected voice that remains approachable and highly legible at display sizes. Its flared, wavy modulation looks crafted to create a distinctive rhythm and period flavor for attention-driven typography.
Capitals are especially blocky and emblematic, while lowercase keeps the same stout, sculpted logic for a consistent headline texture. Numerals match the heavy, flared styling and sit comfortably alongside letters, reinforcing a unified display system.
