To complete the painting, carefully fill in the details of the figure and hieroglyphs using a range of appropriate colours.

Strong primary colours (red, yellow and blue) and secondary colours (green, orange and purple), in combination with black and white, were often used in Ancient Egyptian painting.

Note how the rough edge of painting has been continued through the colour of the tunic.

Please note that any areas that you wish to remain white, such as the whites of the eyes, must be painted with white paint. It is very easy to miss these when you are working on white paper.

Do not worry if you sometimes paint over a section of black line. It will not ruin the overall effect.

Let all the paint dry before you start the next stage.
