You're not meant to start orchestrating it until you've written out the bass-line.
The bass-line comes first. Post that, and then you can work out a viola part (which is of course going to be easier).
The bass-line is the most important thing other than the melody, so it's what the meat of this exercise is.

Post me two melodies with their bass-lines - then we can worry about orchestrating.
