The Messenger Hints
I have the correct portrait, but I cannot give it to the sculptor.
1 of 8: There is one more thing that you will need to take care of first.
2 of 8: Listening to the sculptor should've given you a clue.
3 of 8: He told you how the painting could be improved.
4 of 8: He would like to see the images of a hammer and a chisel on the painting.
5 of 8: Can you think of a way to alter the painting?
6 of 8: Maybe someone can help you.
7 of 8: Go back to the Apollo Gallery.
8 of 8: The painter there would be willing to help. First, talk to the painter. Then, give him the portrait.
