A slanted brush-script display face with compact, vertically stressed letterforms and a lively, handwritten rhythm. Strokes show clear pressure changes with sharp tapers and swollen downstrokes, producing crisp, high-contrast silhouettes. Edges look dry and slightly broken, creating a textured, ink-on-paper feel rather than smooth vectors. The baseline is generally steady but the stroke endings flick and bite, with narrow counters and tight joins that keep the overall color dense and punchy.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and motion are desirable: posters, punchy headlines, branding marks, packaging callouts, and apparel graphics. It can also work for social media graphics and event promos, especially when paired with a calmer text face to balance its strong surface texture.
The texture and brushy movement give the font a gritty, streetwise confidence—equal parts handmade charm and rough-edged intensity. It reads as informal and assertive, with a sense of speed and spontaneity that suits bold, personality-forward messaging.
Designed to emulate fast brush lettering with visible ink drag and irregular deposition, prioritizing personality and tactile texture over precision. The condensed, slanted forms and sharp tapers aim to create impact in display sizes while preserving an authentic, distressed handwritten character.
Uppercase forms are stylized and somewhat script-like rather than strictly formal capitals, while lowercase maintains a quick handwritten flow with simplified construction. Numerals follow the same brush logic with tapered terminals and uneven ink distribution, keeping the set visually cohesive in mixed copy.
