A heavily inked, hand-drawn display face with chunky strokes and distinctly ragged, torn-looking contours. Letterforms are upright with uneven stroke edges and occasional spur-like terminals that feel cut or scratched rather than smoothly brushed. Counters are compact and irregular, and curves look slightly lumpy, creating an intentionally rough texture. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, producing a lively, handmade rhythm that reads best at larger sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, title cards, and packaging callouts where the rough texture can be appreciated. It works well for entertainment contexts like horror-comedy, punk/metal promotions, indie game titles, and themed events, but will feel heavy and busy in small sizes or long-form reading.
The overall tone is gritty and aggressive, with a playful shock value that lands somewhere between comic mischief and B-movie menace. Its distressed silhouettes and chunky presence give it a loud, rebellious energy suited to high-impact messaging.
The design appears intended to mimic thick marker or brush lettering that has been distressed, producing a bold handmade look with deliberately uneven edges. Its emphasis is on texture and attitude over refinement, aiming for immediate visual punch and a raw, analog feel.
Caps and lowercase share the same rugged construction and simplified structure, keeping the texture consistent across mixed-case settings. Numerals match the alphabet’s torn-edge treatment and maintain strong silhouette clarity despite the irregular outlines.
