  • Ignore my name I was eight when I made it

    Pix if you see this can you do a tutorial for custom trees because I have a four year (937 day) survival bedrock world so I can’t install litematica and I’m planing a custom rainforest also my custom trees are good and some could look not bad next to someone like Bdubs or fwips tress but could be so much better so if you could make a tutorial on tress in survival that would be great Edit. Especially birch trees I’m awful at making birch trees that aren’t just recoloured spruce ones
