I was playing around with some brushes and ink, and out came Skulduggery.
Use it for any project you can apply the term ‘skulduggery’ to.
Or not.
Whatever.

I was doing the laundry the other day and, as usual, I was going through the pockets of my jeans. After I had emptied my party pockets, I figured it was a great name for a new font!

So, without further ado: here’s Party Pocket: a handwritten all caps font - great for product packaging, greeting cards and posters!

I really like peanuts! My family and I often eat an Indonesian snack called Rempeyek, which is a deep fried, battered peanut cracker and I was probably craving one when I made this font. Peanut Crunch is a hand painted display font. It comes with some alternates and a bunch of ligatures for you to play around with.

Endgame font was made using a very, VERY bad brush and Chinese ink. I had bought a bunch of brushes some time ago and I discovered that the hairs had been treated with some goo to keep them from sticking out. The goo didn’t really come off, so when I started to draw the glyphs for this font, the brush strokes were kind of wild.
In the end, I really liked it (even though I will never again buy that particular brand of brushes).

Endgame is a wild brush font. Comes with the works: diacritics, ligatures and alternates.

Mystical Woods is a script and caps font duo. I went back to the basics for this one -- ink and a brush on paper. I cleaned up the letters enough so that there are no jagged edges, but left enough of the character to keep that inky look -- those are the Rough fonts. Then I went back through again and cleaned the heck out of them, making every line and curve smooth for our cut-crafting friends -- those are the Smooth fonts.

Since these two fonts were written together with the same tools and style, you can also mix the script letters in with the caps letters!

Each font comes with a full set of standard characters and punctuation, as well as over 300 extended Latin characters for language support. And the script fonts also have 45 double-letter ligatures!

The Pagnol typeface has been designed with a principle developed by A. M. Cassandre in 1937, when the great French designer created the Peignot typeface following paleographic studies on the evolution of letterforms.

Researches in the history of writing have proved that the lowercase “a” is at its origin nothing but the “A” shape transformed through centuries by scribes until the invention of printing. A large number of lowercases meanwhile kept their original shapes. If the scribes’ hand didn’t find the necessity to simplify them, it is only because these letters could be easily written.

Integrating the classical shapes of capitals to the lowercases has already been used, keeping the lowercases which are only a deformation of capitals. Nevertheless, the respect of readability imposes to keep ascendants and descendants from traditional lowercases which serve as optical focus points in a text and make reading easier.

The particularity of Pagnol is to use rounded shapes on top and bottom of pointed capital letters to make them fit with corresponding lowercases (Aa, Mm, Nn, Vv, Ww, Zz). Lowercases proportions are wide, to be in tune with classic lowercase shapes in order to optimize readability.

Five weights in roman and italic have been designed to offer a wide palette of typographic possibilities in all sizes and all paper and screen supports.

I like almost all citrus, but I gotta be honest — lemons are by far my favorite. After wanting one for over 20 years, I recently got my very own lemon tree, so I'm celebrating by naming a font PUCKERY TART!

This is a taller, narrower hand-lettered font with plenty of variety to make your projects look hand-written!

Puckery Tart is a double-uppercase font: one full set mapped to the uppercase letters, and another set of uppercase mapped to the lowercase letters, so you can mix and match between the two. But that’s not all! I've also included a full third set of shorter alternates (Small Caps if you have OpenType software; available in the PUA character section if not) to add some variety. Plus, I've thrown in a few extra-tall versions of F, L, and T — those classic letters that like to cuddle other letters.

Puckery Tart also contains over 300 extended Latin characters for language support, including, but not limited to: Catalan, Czech, Danish, Esperanto, Estonian, Finnish, French, Gaelic, German, Icelandic, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Serbian (Latin), Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Welsh, and more!
