Euphoria Script | Download from Source
Euphoria Script is an informal script type. It began with letterform sketches made by hand with a copperplate nib, which were redrawn digitally with the stroke endings of a brush script. This makes the type seem playful, which is important in casual scripts.
It has very fast curves, thanks to the slight slant angle, but it remains highly legible. It will be perfect for titles and short phrases in branding, magazines, content about food, fashion, music – anything which is as lively as the font itself.

Resphekt | Download from Source
Designed by Fontfabric & Evgeny Tkhorzhevsky, Resphekt is a sharp and slightly abrasive, masculine script. It mimics cursive hand-writing to the extend that you can almost see the author, or in this case scribe, because Resphekt has a distinctly old-school vibe. There is a distinct sense of an old fashioned fountain pen—or perhaps even quill and inkpot—about this typeface. The descending ‘s’ and old-style spur on the ‘e’ are particularly pleasing.
Resphekt is ideal for any kind of gothic purpose; it’s hard to imagine a more suitable face for a reprinting of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, although not for the body text, Resphekt is strictly for display text. You’re free to use the font online, even with @font-face rules if you credit Fontfabric.
