Center the 9s, connect them diagonally to make an octagon (double borders left and right). The 6s are in c10-15, they are the top and bottom of an octagon that has indentations on the left and right side (so you might want to draw vertical 6s in c7 and 18, then cut out parts. There's a chain of little beads from the upper right corner of the main shape. since there are MANY gallifreyan number sets online, here's the one to reference: https://gallifreyandictionary.fandom.com/wiki/Low_Gallifreyan_Number_System?file=Low_Gallifreyan_Numbers.png.
