Soccer Stadium on Match Day Coloring Page

You are high in the stands looking down at a full stadium. The pitch below is the main event and it arrives as clear open paper: a center circle, a penalty box at each end, and a goal with a net standing on each of the two end lines. A fourth goal stands on the near touchline in the foreground, closer to the reader and much larger than the others, which is not how a real pitch is laid out but it does hand you one big piece of mesh to work with. The stands curve around in tiers of small looped shapes standing in for spectators, with a plain empty scoreboard panel set into the upper tier that you can letter yourself. Three floodlight masts rise above the roofline on thin poles with boxy heads. The nearest row of supporters is drawn much bigger along the bottom edge, heads and shoulders only, and it frames the view. Color the crowd in broad bands rather than picking out individuals, keep the grass light so the painted lines still read, and save your strongest tone for the floodlights. The upper third of the sheet is open sky and takes a flat wash well.
