Palettes with Polished Blackstone

Nether fortressDark nether bricks between grey basalt pillars, with red nether brick roofs. Shroomlight is the light source, so the build glows without a torch in sight.Crimson forest houseCrimson planks between white quartz pillars, the strongest contrast the Nether has, under a near-black nether brick roof. Stripped crimson stems trim the doors, and shroomlight from the same forest lights it.Warped forest outpostTeal warped planks held in a frame of polished blackstone, with a blackstone brick roof. Stripped warped stems are the bright trim, and warped wart blocks hang off it like the forest outside.Blackstone bastionPolished blackstone bricks with lighter basalt pillars, the blocks a bastion is made of. Magma blocks glow along the base, and a few gilded blackstone blocks are the only gold.
