8. When the figure is dry, you need to paint it. Both acrylic paints and gouache are suitable for this. But it is worth noting that gouache can spread under the varnish. Cover the entire figure (back and front) with brown paint.

9. We wait for the brown paint to dry and begin to draw out the details. It is best to paint with a thin brush (number one or two). Using light orange paint we draw the monkey’s face, ears and belly.
