- Beginner: one large subject and big areas to paint, little detail. Ideal for a first canvas.
- Intermediate: several elements or colour gradients, with smaller areas. It takes a little more care and a fine brush in places.

Paint by numbers rugby ball between the posts
An oval rugby ball flies between the H posts against an orange sunset sky. This paint by numbers for adults also shows the green pitch and a stadium silhouette in the distance. The areas are clear: the ball stands out in light brown against a red and golden yellow background. The line of the trajectory leads the eye towards the gap between the two uprights. The style is expressive, with broad flat areas in the sky and stronger outlines on the posts. The square format keeps the composition centred on the action.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the orange sky at the top, using the wide brush. The sunset gradients need two neighbouring shades blended on the canvas while it is still wet. Leave the H posts until last: their light lines are painted with the fine brush, without spilling onto the sky. The oval ball and its trajectory come next, in brown and ochre. Choose a 30x30 cm size or larger to keep the stadium outlines readable.
Sizes, colours and painting time
The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
What's in the kit
Canvas:The printed linen canvas carries the outlines of the oval ball, the H posts and the pitch.
Paint:The acrylic pots cover the orange, red, golden yellow, green and brown of the sky and the grass.
Brushes:The wide brush covers the orange sky, the medium one paints the posts, the fine one traces the ball's trajectory.
Guide:The paper guide helps you check the numbers on the ball, the posts and the stadium silhouette.
Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the canvas of the pitch at dusk, otherwise it arrives rolled in a tube.
Without frame
The canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You paint 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.
Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this rugby picture?
30x30 cm suits the square format of the image and keeps the posts sharp. Go for 40x40 cm or 50x50 cm if you want to paint the orange sky in broader areas.
Are the stadium and ball details hard to paint?
The level is medium. The sky and pitch fill in quickly. The posts and the stadium silhouette need the fine brush and a little patience around the edges.
Who is this rugby ball paint by numbers kit for?
For a rugby player or supporter, or for someone looking for a sports picture to paint. The theme also suits beginners who want a simple scene with a clear subject.
