Here is the rugby ball with the double fondant. It was a big hit.. but as I make a soft sponge the bottom half of the ball was desperate to rest on the cake board. Anyhow the two tones of fondant did work but there were no comments from my children until the end product and then I received a WoW. Only then I knew it was OK but was very worried at one stage and would have prefered a rounder ball and perhaps next time I shal make a drier sponge for the bottom. All in all they were terribly happy with it. Thanks for everyones help.
Fab work! I had the same problem with the 3D sports ball, the bottom of the ball was decidely flatter, but I think yours looks great, not noticable at all!
Nearly forgot to say Lee ann,Hope to see you at the show next month, I'm going to wear a badge of some sort (got to try and make one,not out of icing! 
) with CC and Denise4 on it, I shall tell everyone I meet if they know about CC and how great the site is, full of lovely friendly and helpful people.

It's at the NEC Birmingham, The BSG Craft show on the 11th & 12th Nov, It's the BSG's 25th anniversary, I've never been to the NEC before, I think this is going to be a Good one, lots of top name specialists there I've been told, lots of work shops and demos.....hope you get the chance to go.
A great job. So smooth work! When we are doing a cake we do worry about our work because we see it all the time and by the end of the project it doesn't have the WOW factor and we have probably had enough. When someone sees it for the first time it is WOW! Keep it up.
