Manga Creator Rebels Page 3: Punk Couple Story Scene

Manga Creator Rebels Page 3 is a punk couple story scene and the third page of the Rebels series. The concert is over. This page follows two characters off stage, in quieter places, which makes it the most story-driven of the Rebels pages.

Two original characters

You design both characters from scratch: skin tone, eye color, eyebrow style and mouth expression. Freckles, blush or a little sweat fit a dramatic scene or a long night after band practice.

Hair with an edge

Front and back hair pieces mix into anime-meets-rebel styles, from layered bangs to sharp cuts.

The rock band look

The clothes are made for fans of rock band style:

• gothic tanks
• mesh shirts
• leather jackets
• music video style outfits

Accessories

Wristbands, necklaces and dark-themed bows add a punk twist. Sunglasses, artist-style glasses, beanies and headbands finish the vibe.

Off-stage settings

This is what makes the page different. The backgrounds are places where people talk rather than perform:

• a stylish hotel suite
• a cozy living room
• a late-night restaurant

Maybe the pair is relaxing after band practice, maybe it is a date, maybe something more complicated is going on.

Telling the story

Speech bubbles turn the picture into a moment. The tone is up to you: romantic, friendly, dramatic or funny. Two characters at a restaurant table can be a first date or a band breakup, depending on what they say.

Scenes to try

After the show

Both in leather jackets and sunglasses, in the hotel suite.

Quiet night in

Mesh shirt and beanie, living room, soft lines of dialogue.

The argument

Late-night restaurant, contrasting outfits and sharp speech bubbles.
