Condensed rounded Western capitals crossed by long diagonal scratches
Grass of Home is a condensed rounded slab in which tall oval bowls and soft curved ends give a Western tone, while long pale diagonal scratches and smaller chips cut through the thick strokes of a two-row title.

Fine grain and micro-texture excel in 300 DPI print, sublimation, and screen print rather than small vinyl weeding.
Visual anatomy & craft review
The bowls compress into ovals, the ends keep a rounded slab, the diagonals rake across the letters in long pale lines and small chips roughen the surface between them. The dragged scratch is the character: the wear runs in one direction rather than as even speckle, which is why the sample sets two rows under a frontier scene. Because the scratches are long, the face wants 30 mm before they read as texture, and the condensed counters need 36 pt to stay open. The boots, hat and town are cover scenery; the lettering is the face.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Grass of Home’s stroke geometry.
The Western slabs read on a gate, and the scratched texture gives a two-word name age at 60 mm on a painted board. A brown ground makes the pale scratches read as wear.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Paint a 600 by 300 mm board: set the words at 60 mm on two rows, keep 20 mm between the rows, and keep 28 mm of border so the rounded ends stay inside the frame. Seal the board for outdoor weather.
Pre-production check
A scratch painted thinner than 3 mm closes and the letter looks solid; check the mask and keep the scratches at 4 mm.
The condensed Western slabs set a period title, and the raked scratches give it texture at 56 pt across a printed spread. The rake runs one way, so keep the block square to the page.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 210 mm spread: set the title at 56 pt on one row, keep 20 mm of clear ground beneath, and set the standfirst at 10 pt in a serif on a 64 mm measure with 12 mm of space below.
Pre-production check
Scratches printed at 24 pt read as damage; check the proof and keep the title at 44 pt or above. Set the title large before judging the texture.
The worn slabs suit a workshop label, and the rounded ends stay solid at 20 pt on a 60 mm panel in one ink. The oval bowls keep a condensed face from looking narrow for its own sake.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 60 by 40 mm label: set the workshop name at 20 pt, keep 5 mm of border so the rounded slabs are not trimmed, and set the town in a 6 pt caps beneath with 4 mm of clear ground.
Pre-production check
A raked scratch printed on a small label reads as a printing fault; check the proof and use the cleaner cut below 24 pt.
