A brush-pen script with a pronounced rightward slant and strongly tapered strokes that create sharp, triangular terminals and occasional blunt, ink-heavy joins. The letterforms are loosely connected in running text, with variable stroke edges that look dry-brushed and slightly ragged, producing a lively, uneven texture. Proportions feel compact vertically with bouncy baselines and irregular widths, while counters are often tight and partially closed by the brush weight. Overall rhythm is quick and gestural rather than carefully smoothed, emphasizing motion and pressure changes over geometric consistency.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as posters, headlines, album or event graphics, packaging callouts, and expressive brand marks. It can also work for social media graphics and quotes when set at larger sizes where the brush texture and stroke contrast remain clear.
The font conveys an assertive, handmade voice—fast, punchy, and slightly rough around the edges. Its brush texture and aggressive slant give it a street-poster immediacy that reads as bold, informal, and attention-seeking rather than refined or delicate.
Designed to mimic quick brush lettering with visible pressure shifts and textured edges, prioritizing personality and momentum over polished uniformity. The goal appears to be a bold handwritten feel that remains legible while retaining the spontaneity of ink on paper.
In the sample text the heavy texture builds dense black shapes at smaller sizes, while larger settings better showcase the bristle-like edges and tapered entry/exit strokes. The numerals share the same brush modulation and irregular finishing, keeping the set cohesive for casual display use.
