A heavy, brush-painted display face with a pronounced forward slant and irregular, torn-looking edges. Strokes are thick and compact, with visible wobble in curves and corners that suggests quick, dry-brush pressure and lift-off. Letterforms keep a broadly consistent skeleton while allowing notable variation in stroke endings, interior counters, and sidebearings, creating an intentionally uneven rhythm. The texture is strongest at terminals and along outer contours, giving forms a cutout, distressed silhouette that stays legible at large sizes.
Best suited to posters, headlines, apparel graphics, and promotional materials where texture and attitude are desired. It performs well in short bursts—titles, slogans, and packaging callouts—where the distressed edges can be appreciated. For readability, it benefits from generous size and spacing, and may be less suitable for dense body copy.
The overall tone is energetic and rebellious, with a gritty, handmade punch. It reads as playful but aggressive—more street-poster and zine-like than polished script—bringing immediacy and attitude to short messages. The rough texture adds a sense of motion and noise, as if the lettering was made fast and loud.
The design appears intended to mimic bold, quickly brushed lettering with a distressed finish, prioritizing impact and handmade authenticity over typographic regularity. It aims to deliver a high-energy display voice that feels informal, gritty, and attention-seeking in contemporary graphic contexts.
Uppercase shapes are blocky and impactful, while lowercase maintains the same slanted, brushy construction with simplified joins rather than continuous connections. Numerals match the rugged contour treatment and feel more like painted marks than engineered figures. Spacing appears intentionally uneven to preserve the hand-drawn character, which becomes more pronounced in longer lines of text.
