A condensed, slanted handwritten face with brush-pen construction and a visibly dry, textured stroke. Letterforms are built from quick, angular gestures with pointed terminals, occasional ink buildup at turns, and small breaks or rough edges that create a worn, scratchy silhouette. The rhythm is lively and uneven in a deliberate way, with narrow counters, compact proportions, and simplified shapes that favor speed and impact over polish.
Best suited to display settings where the textured stroke and condensed energy can be appreciated—posters, headlines, apparel graphics, band or album visuals, and punchy packaging. It can also work for short, expressive quotes or social graphics, especially when paired with a cleaner sans for supporting copy.
The overall tone feels raw and human—like marker or brush lettering scanned from a notebook or poster. Its rough texture and energetic slant give it a gritty, DIY attitude that reads as bold, informal, and slightly rebellious.
The design appears intended to mimic fast brush lettering with a distressed, ink-dry texture, delivering a compact, high-impact voice for contemporary, gritty themes. Its condensed forms and emphatic slant prioritize immediacy and attitude in headline-driven compositions.
Uppercase and lowercase maintain a consistent hand but show natural variation, with some letters taking on more calligraphic, single-stroke solutions. Numerals match the same brisk, textured stroke behavior, keeping the set cohesive for short bursts of text.
