font for German Kurrent using thick curvy hand written-like letters

This proportional font resembles a recent version of the German Kurrent cursive script from around 1900 and aims to look like a curvy handwriting using a thick pen.

One can use it as aid to learn Kurrent, for tattoos or other text, where readability is less important.

Kurrent has been used for hand writing over 500 years, undergoing various transformations until it has been replaced by the nowadays more well-known Sütterlin script from 1911.
