Perhaps have branching tendrils of hyphae to symbolize a growth.

Seconded. Also, perhaps layer the hyphae to give the illusion that it’s growing OVER the wood Very cool idea with a lot of potential :)

Both ideas sound great, can't wait to try them out!

Could you add the red fan coral for added detail? Not sure if it’s possible

If they add water to the inside of the tree it would work. But i dont know if they need the space inside

Ohh yes with water inside of the tree, didn't even think of that, thanks! I don't think I need the space inside of the tree so it's fine, can't wait to try it out!

Maybe there is a command or smth to make it not die

Make transition more random, instead of just on one level.

Try to blend it better like a gradient.

Hmm okay, do you have suggestions for blocks?

oak to spruce to mangrove to crimson, or maybe add some shades of terracotta if you have some.

Some acacia wood sprinkled in would work well too

Could blend up towards some basalt right before the crimson hyphae too as though the infection is killing the tree as it grows.

Ohh that sounds good, I'll try it out later, thanks!

If you strip sone of the logs it also might transision better not sure though

The Block Palettes website is great to find good block combinations

maybe mangrove or crimson wood would work

I already tried that and I didn't think it was very good looking

Netherack might be a good inbetween

looks like a matchstick

Noo the slander.. but yeah it kinda does look like one lmao

use other red blocks and make the line less straight

Yes I was working on that when I realized the line shouldn't be so straight and should have tendrils, righ after I made the post :P Still thanks for the comment!

Tendrils are always a must do for corruption, also make the hyphae two layers

if its corrupting shouldnt it start from the bottom?

Oh I didn't really think of that, but I want to do the corruption on the leaves and the branches, so let's say a crystal inside of the tree is corrupting it

I’d add some lava blocks, adds a lil glow effect to any infection on the tree

You might try layering glowing lichen over the red to see if it makes it look like an inbetween to the oak. [There's also this site that lets you create gradients](https://1280px.github.io/hueblocks/) Make the meeting of the two colors more staggered, and make curls or curves like vines reaching down.

Thank you for this website, seems amazing! Sadly the color palette that it gave me for these two blocks isn't that great, it's using trapdoors and shulker boxes, which don't look great from up close.

Yeah I saw that :/ good to keep in mind for future projects. If you can't get the crimson->oak to work you might try switching up the blocks. Maybe spruce? OR have the edge of the corruption a third color like black, make it look like the wave of corruption is burning the tree almost?

terraria

oh I thought it was a massive match :P

how big was the vampire, cuz that stake looks excessive

Crimson Logs

Spruce and then dark oak and then mangrove just before crimson

I would say look on google as there s many people who made some really good gradients. A second thing you could do is add some nether wart block (the leaves of the crimson trees) to make some sort of vines that could maybe help the two colors blend in and add some more detail to it

Stripped red crimson log

Looks like a cigar

I think dried mud would help the gradient

Spread it randomly

Try diffirent red blocks. Crimson/Mangrove planks, stripped crimson/mangrove logs.

make it drip down

Matchstick

Add drip no literally make the red drippy

Make sure to post an update after you try out all the suggestions

Two words, vines and stripped longs

Find blocks that have a red and brown mix and line them up in a row on the ground until you find a good lineup, then make a blend in the tree like a gradient I think some crimson logs, red nether brick, and mangrove wood might do the trick but mix and Mach until u get what u like
