A basketball tip-off paint by numbers picture to paint
This basketball tip-off paint by numbers for adults shows two players suspended above the centre circle. One orange kit, one blue kit, the ball held in both hands between them. The light wooden floor fills the lower part of the picture, crossed by the white court lines. A hoop is suggested in the background against a dark backdrop. The silhouettes are crisp, with broad areas of colour on the kits and shoes. The square format keeps both players in the centre. The kit contains the printed canvas with numbers, the acrylic paint pots, three brushes and the control sheet.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the dark background behind the players, then the light floor and its white lines. Next paint the kits: the orange and blue need two coats to cover the numbers. Keep the faces and hands for the end, with the fine brush. Paint the ball last, once the arms are dry. The detail is medium: a 30x30 cm or 40x40 cm size is enough to keep the outlines crisp. Choose 36 colours to vary the wood and the shadows.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with a wooden frame to assemble or with the canvas already mounted on its frame (except in 50x70 and 60x80 cm, delivered rolled). Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines and numbers of the two players mid-jump and the ball in the air.
Paint:The numbered acrylic pots cover the orange, blue, white, light wood and black seen on the court.
Brushes:The fine brush is for the court lines, the medium for the kits and the large for the court background.
Guide:The paper control sheet helps you check the numbers for the players, the ball and the hoop in the background.
Optional:Optionally, the wooden frame to assemble lets you stretch the canvas of the centre circle and the players. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint it flat and frame it afterwards if you wish.
With frame
Wooden stretcher bars to assemble stretch the canvas. You paint on a taut surface and hang the picture on the wall.
Mounted canvas
The canvas arrives already stretched on its wooden frame. You start painting right away and hang the picture on the wall.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this basketball picture?
The picture is square. A 30x30 cm suits a first attempt, while a 40x40 cm or 50x50 cm leaves more room for the faces and hands. Avoid 20x30 cm, too small for two players.
Are the players' details hard to paint?
The level is medium. The kits and the floor are painted in large areas. The tight spots are the hands on the ball, the facial features and the shoelaces. The fine brush and the paper sheet help with these.
Who is this basketball tip-off paint by numbers kit for?
For a basketball player or fan, a teenager who follows the NBA, or an adult looking for a sports design to paint. The square format hangs well in a bedroom or a club.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
The detail is medium. Start with the dark background, then the light floor and its white lines. The orange and blue of the kits need two coats. Keep faces and hands for the end with the fine brush, and the ball last. A 30x30 or 40x40 cm size is enough to keep it crisp.
What are the 3 types of paint?
This kit contains ready-to-use numbered acrylic paint, in 24, 36 or 48 colours depending on the option. For this picture, 36 colours let you vary the wood and the shadows. The paper sheet is for checking the numbers of the areas, not for showing a painting order.
