Author's note

Bruce Scaled by Bill Roach is a free decorative display font with towering irregular letters, dramatic stroke changes, and a mischievous storybook edge. Crooked joins and sharp wedge serifs keep the forms lively.

Storybook fantasy and theatrical design are its clearest territory, especially book covers, stage posters, and game title cards built around eccentric castles, folklore, or comic villains. The exaggerated silhouettes also suit illustrated packaging and seasonal event graphics, where the lettering can become a row of carved sign shapes within the artwork rather than serving as neutral type.
