Dragon Rock Painting

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Sketch and base coat

   Wash and dry your rock. Lightly sketch the dragon outline with pencil - a large oval body with a curved neck, small head, and tail looping around. Paint the entire body with green paint and let dry.

2. Add scale texture

   Using dark green paint and your fine brush, paint rows of small U-shaped scales across the body. Work from the tail upward. Add gold or yellow highlights to the belly area for contrast.

3. Paint the head and face

   Paint a fierce-looking head with two prominent eyes - yellow iris with black vertical pupil. Add sharp nostrils and a toothy grin. Paint small horns on top of the head in dark green or gold.

4. Add wings and fire

   Paint two bat-style wings on the back using dark green. Outline each wing with black for definition. At the dragon's mouth, paint a burst of orange and yellow fire with a few red streaks.

5. Final details and seal

   Add white highlight dots to the eyes and tiny claws at the feet. Choose your dragon's personality - a green forest dragon or add red to make it a fiery red beast! Seal with clear spray when fully dry.

6. Add RoxGeo Code

   On the bottom or back of your rock, write ROXGEO.COM followed by a slash and your rock’s unique code (e.g. ROXGEO.COM/ABC123). This lets the finder go directly to your rock’s profile page and log their discovery. If the rock is too small for the full address, write #ROX followed by the code without spaces (e.g. #ROXABC123) — it’s short, easy to search on Google, and leads straight to your rock’s journey page. Use a fine-tip permanent marker or acrylic paint pen, and seal it with clear varnish so the code stays readable through rain, sun, and adventure.
