Condensed stencil blocks with irregular chipped surfaces
Grunge Corps shows light-grey stencil capitals on charcoal, where broad vertical cuts separate sections of bowls and crossbars while thin dark scuffs and chips roughen the remaining heavy strokes.

Open counter bridges hold interior islands intact on laser-cut wood, acrylic, and mylar stencils.
Visual anatomy & craft review
The blocks stay condensed, the cuts run wide and vertical, the surfaces chip and the outer silhouette stays mostly intact. That chipped stencil is the character: the word looks sprayed through a worn mask rather than printed from a clean plate, which is why the sample pairs one pale title with a small orange subtitle. The gaps do not prove a manufacturable stencil or an engraving-ready outline, so inspect the actual glyphs before any cut or etch and keep 40 pt before the chips read as noise.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Grunge Corps’s stroke geometry.
The chipped stencil suits a crate mark, and the heavy blocks stay solid at 40 mm on a branded panel, where the vertical cuts run clean.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 250 mm crate panel: set the word at 40 mm on one row, keep every vertical cut at 5 mm minimum, and keep 12 mm of clear ground so the chipped edges stay visible.
Pre-production check
A cut printed under 2 mm closes with ink spread; check the plate proof and hold the word at 36 mm or above.
The condensed stencil sets a hard heading, and the chipped strokes hold a two-word title at 48 pt on a page, with the wear visible but quiet.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 210 mm page: set the heading at 48 pt on one row, keep 18 mm beneath before the standfirst at 10 pt, and keep the block on a plain field so the wear is not doubled by texture.
Pre-production check
Two distressed layers on textured paper read as noise; check the proof and use smooth stock.
The stencil blocks suit a workshop sign, and the condensed forms read at 56 pt on a printed sheet, clear from a bay entrance.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 sign: set the sign at 56 pt on one row, keep 20 mm of clear ground beneath before the bay number at 14 pt, and keep 18 mm of margin all round.
Pre-production check
Thin chips painted at 24 pt look like damage; check the mounted sheet and keep the sign at 46 pt or above.
