When writing emotionally reserved characters:

Show your character's struggles with holding in emotions. Just because your character won't let themself go in public, doesn't mean they don't struggle holding everything in.

Find a motive. Pride and/or consideration for those around them can make emotionally reserved people hold back more than would be considered good for them. There are other reasons too, perhaps the initial cause and the reason now are different, but try to give them a reason.

Show side-effects. Everything you bottled up shows itself in another way, whether it's physical or mental. This can be long- and short-term, depending on the severity of the emotions.

Give them coping mechanisms. Everyone who wishes not to show certain emotions has a trick or two to keep themselves in check. Taking a sip of water, not looking people in the eyes, clenching their fists, breathing just a bit too deeply.

Write subconscious signs that they give off, which close friends or family might pick on. Just because these characters want to keep their emotions to themselves, doesn't mean they don't give off signs. Some manage to keep said signs well hidden from those closest to them, but it's more common for environment to pick up on something at the very least.

I made a full-length sketch of Osiris. In principle, I am happy with his clothes. But instead of a whip for collecting incense, I drew a threshing flail into his hands, I mixed them up😅

Also, the shortened staff in the original in the form of a hook is much shorter, and in principle the staff was given to Osiris to illustrate power, in fact, it is unlikely that the kings walked with him. But why not add it.

Still, the king is the same shepherd if you think about it

I made a trial design of the Egyptian god Ra. Making it a falcon or a coccyx, as in the original, will not work - why repeat yourself? Horus is already a subspecies of the peregrine falcon. The phoenix was considered the personification of the soul of Ra in Egyptian mythology, or rather, the Egyptians called it the Bennu bird, something like a mixture of a heron and a stork.

According to the pictures on the Internet, he is more depicted with gray or blue feathers, but since I will not draw a solar disk above his head, and the Horus is already in this color, I thought I would paint it in warm sunny colors.

I'm still not particularly happy with the design, according to the idea it should be older than all the other Egyptian gods. He should not be too big in the shoulders, I would like to make him wise and eloquent more than strong, otherwise why would he need Sekhmet for guards?

So I will try to change it again😕
