逐步说明

步骤 1: Paint the pitch-dark abyss

Wash and dry your rock. Paint the entire surface with near-black. While still wet, blend in deep navy blue in the upper areas to suggest the water column — darker at the bottom (deepest water) and slightly less dark higher up. The abyssal zone has no sunlight at all. Add a few scattered pinpoints of light for bioluminescent particles in the water column.

步骤 2: Sketch and paint the angler fish body

Sketch an anglerfish (deep sea fish) body — a wide, rounded head taking up most of the body, with a tapering tail. The anglerfish is the most recognizable deep sea creature. Paint the body in deep teal or dark gray-blue. Add a large, gaping mouth with massive jagged teeth in white — the teeth are a hallmark feature.

步骤 3: Paint the bioluminescent lure

On the top of the anglerfish's head, paint a long spine (illicium) extending forward and curving down in front of the mouth. At the tip, paint a small glowing bulb in bright cyan or neon blue-green with a white core. This is the esca — the bioluminescent lure the anglerfish uses to attract prey in the darkness.

步骤 4: Add bioluminescent body markings

Using neon green or bright cyan paint and a fine brush, add a series of glowing spots and curving line patterns along the body and fins of the anglerfish. These bioluminescent patterns suggest the photophores (light-producing organs) that many deep sea creatures use for communication and camouflage.

步骤 5: Add the glowing eye and seal

Paint a large, haunting deep-sea eye on the side of the anglerfish head — a wide greenish iris surrounding a large black pupil with a tiny white highlight. Add a glow halo around the entire fish using very diluted cyan paint. Apply gloss sealant. The wet, shiny finish makes the fish look submerged in water.

步骤 6: 添加RoxGeo代码

在岩石的底部或背面写上 ROXGEO.COM，后面跟一个斜杠和你岩石的唯一代码（例如 ROXGEO.COM/ABC123）。这让发现者可以直接访问你岩石的个人资料页面并记录他们的发现。如果岩石太小而无法写下完整地址，可以写 #ROX 后跟没有空格的代码（例如 #ROXABC123）——这样简短，容易在Google上搜索，并直接引导到你岩石的旅程页面。使用细尖永久性马克笔或丙烯颜料笔，并用透明清漆封住，以确保代码在雨水、阳光和冒险中保持可读。

实用小贴士

选择一块形状适合你设计主题的石头。
在开始画画之前，先用铅笔轻轻勾勒出设计。
在添加下一层之前，让每一层完全干燥。
用透明密封喷雾保护石头，使其在户外也能持久。
对于底部的RoxGeo代码，请使用防水的永久性马克笔（如Sharpie）或丙烯画笔。在代码上涂抹2-3层透明密封剂——这可以让它在雨水、阳光和多次处理下保持可读性，持续数月。
在你的岩石上写上#ROXCODE（例如#ROXABC123）可以通过谷歌搜索轻松找到它。我们积极优化这个标签，因此任何搜索它的人都能快速找到你岩石的个人资料页面。
完整地址ROXGEO.COM/CODE将直接带领发现者到你的岩石卡片上，在那里他们可以看到它的完整旅行历史、之前的发现者和每个停靠点的照片。
