Design
Combed Terminal Painted Letterforms
Brush Rake Upright combines tall, fairly narrow capitals with solid strokes and lightly combed ends. The E has broad horizontal arms whose tips break into fine teeth, while its vertical stem stays firm. The O forms a tall oval with an open counter and a mostly smooth outline. The R pairs a compact bowl with a straight diagonal leg, keeping the word shape direct. Stroke thickness stays fairly even through curves and stems, with gentle changes around joins. The result feels informal but controlled, giving short wording a painted character without overwhelming its familiar letter shapes.
Test the font in your wording
Check repeated straight letters, oval counters, and diagonal joins in your actual Latin wording. Inspect combed terminals at the intended output size and review spacing around punctuation. For other scripts, verify glyph availability and appearance separately; these specimens show Latin capitals.
Font pairing roles
Try this face for the main heading, with a quieter sans serif for descriptions and supporting labels. Its combed ends and narrow oval capitals provide texture, while smoother companion lettering could keep longer information visually separate.

Same wording · 40pxHELLO WORLD?
Brush Rake Upright has steadier vertical stems, smoother oval contours, and shallow feathering concentrated at the ends. Its question mark finishes with a round dot, supporting the more controlled rhythm of the lettering.
HELLO WORLD?
Brush Dry Arcade shows more irregular edge wear, more angular stroke endings, and a blockier question-mark dot. Its tilted contours and uneven edges give the same wording a rougher, more restless rhythm.

How this page was made. Brush Rake Upright is a FontGenerator library font made with AI; before release its letters were read back one by one by independent automated checks. The design notes were written by AI from the specimen images and checked against them by a second, independent pass; font measurements come from the font file. Preview sizes and spacing are comparison settings.

About
About Brush Rake Upright
The x-height is a compact 68.1% of the cap height, below the 74.3% median for display fonts, lower than 100 of the 117 other display fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l line up with the capitals (100.4% of their height), and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 26.6% of the cap height below the baseline, deeper than 84 of the 117 other display fonts. It sets narrow: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 63.6% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 72.2%), 27% less than the median for display fonts, so more words fit on a line. The o is an upright oval, 0.83 times as wide as it is tall, and M is the widest capital, at 1.24 times the width of H. The O tops out level with H and dips 1.2% below the baseline.
The letters stand upright, leaning less than 2.5° either way. Vertical stems measure 14.7% of the cap height, lighter than 52 of the 59 other display fonts. Ink covers 36.1% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), lighter than 80 of the 117 other display fonts. Strokes keep nearly one thickness in every direction: the sides and the tops of o and O differ by 10%.
Its 148 characters include 105 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 46% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 15.9% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in Brush Rake Upright will not line up exactly.
