A Chanky version of the popular Old West type style. The interpretation was inspired by hand-made signage in Paducah, Kentucky.

I started 2004 detailing this font for January release, properly "Chankifying" the letterforms. The strokes are loopy and loose. The exaggerated terminals give this font a loud, boisterous presence.

Drunk Cowboy is a brutish rogue that eminates the fierce independence of Rio as played by Marlon Brando in "One Eyed Jacks," but it is most like Paul Newman's Butch Cassidy -- a mischievous wise-cracker.

And there's gold worth mining for in this font. Dig deep enough and you'll find swash characters and special ligatures, like Th, ST, CT, NT and other popular letter combinations found in the Cowboy dialect.
