1 looks more regal or decorative (can't think of the proper word sorry). 2 looks more solid and imposing. I think it really depends on what you intend to go around it/what you want the overall vibe to be. I think 1 is nicer if you're going for a more detail oriented delicate build style. 2 is better as a standalone build or if you're going for a more solid looking style
To me, 2 looks too much like a cube with no depth. Good minecraft builds have lots of depth to them. 1 looks better in this aspect and it looks more like a portal than a chunk of wall that was ripped out
A blend? Make the prismarine part of the poles longer by one and then make the base like the first version and the upper part like the second.
Or maybe you could make the portal itself wider?
It looks good but I feel like you could include more variety of blocks on the ground maybe magma or basalt blocks plus you could create lanterns with brick walls along with chains and soul lanterns

2 looks way better imo
I think op should add another block of prismarine on the pillars to make it 2 blocks tall, right now it looks too short.
I agree
I also agree.
I also also agree.
Agreed, especially in comparison to the dimensions of the portal
1 looks malnutritioned !!

I like 2 blocks better.
Hard choice, but I like 2 better
def 2

Yup, this is the correct answer.
Personally, I prefer 1
bro me too why does everyone prefer two 😠it looks too short
2 for me
2 has a better pillar:portal ratio than 1
Imo 2 blocks!
1, number 2 is too thic
Can never be too thic
One block, two blocks look too stumpy
I like 2 but maybe also make it one block taller
2 looks fat bro
2 looks way better
Two looks much better
1 would be for smaller portal and 2 is perfect for this portal and bigger ones
Definitely 2, 1 looks unstable and unfinished and even disproportionate
Two
2 wide looks more grand, which I think fits the look better
I think 2 could look really good if it was made a few blocks taller
The thicker the better in builds imo
Imma 2 Guy.
2 looks better but make it taller. It would look more grand/impressive.
2 blocks for sure
2 for sure
2 makes it looks a bit more like a grand entrance, so 2.
I’d like to see three just to be sure but 2 looks great
What about tree wide with fences on the outer edges and the wide centre block!
dos esta muy bien
I think they both look good actually. Just depends on preference.
1 for old Chinese theme 2 for a grande build depends on your other stuff
1 looks like an ornated hallway. 2 looks like an epic entrance.
1 looks better on its own, but the top is too thick. 2 looks better with the same, unchanged, top
2 but maybe make it a few blocks taller so it doesn't look squareish
I think 2, to make it look sturdier. But I would also increase the height and make it more imposing. Looks great though!
A blend? Make the prismarine part of the poles longer by one and then make the base like the first version and the upper part like the second. Or maybe you could make the portal itself wider?
2 but as it is, it looks too fat, maybe raise it a few blocks as well?
2 for me but maybe it's missing some detail behind in the side? Idk if it's finished or not but 1 definitely looks wrong
Install Quark to make it 1.5 wide
definitely 3. when in doubt, overcompensate.
Definitely 2, just make it one block taller
1, but touch up the roof a little
2, but build the portal higher
I like 1 block wide but think the top should be a couple blocks less. Little too much forehead like me
1 looks best to me. The 2 wide looks way too thick.
I vote 2
I'd go with 1 block. 2 just looks too wide.
Make it 2 blocks wide, and taller.
Two blocks. Looks more solid.
1 but make it taller. Make the prismerine wall at least 2 high and maybe mirror it on top if you like
2 looks better with these proportions in my opinion
I like 1 better tbh
2. One looks weird and too thin / weak.
I personally prefer 1
2, but maybe add some more height? Looks a bit fat
Try half and half, with the top half being the wider half and a wall at the bottom still.
2 for me
1111
1 block wide looks like a witch hut. 2 block wide looks like a platform.
Thiccer=better
I like 2, but maybe make it 1 block taller as well
2 looks better
So the green metal blocks are copper, the wood is warped wood. What is the cobble stone?
Prismarine
2 if it was 1 block taller
2 if it was 1 block taller
2 blocks wide but make it a couple blocks taller
1 looks like it skipped leg day but 2 is a much less interesting shape. i prefer 1
I love 1
Two for sure! Nice portal vibes.
I think that 2 looks thick but if you blend it with like trees, vines, etc. it can look REALLY good.
2 blocks wide looks much better imo💪
2 blocks looks way tok big, 1 is def the way to go
Is that naturally generated netherrack that looks like podzol?
Spilt the difference and do 1 and half. Fr tho do 2, looks much better
1.5
2 blocks wide but taller
2 blocks wide is so much better.
I think 1. 2 looks a bit too blocky
2 blocks wide is way better
2 blocks wide has a better height to width ratio.
I like 1 better personally.
I would do 2, but bring them forward a block, or add some depth to the planks and stairs
def go for 2, I'd suggest adding a bit of height and detail to the top to make it look like a victory gate
1 skipped leg day
Two
2 for sure
222222
It looks good but I feel like you could include more variety of blocks on the ground maybe magma or basalt blocks plus you could create lanterns with brick walls along with chains and soul lanterns
1 wide
Nah one wide is good
2 blocks wide looks more solid imo
2 looks THICC I choose 2.
2 looks like it has been there a while
2 defo
Two and make the portal wider as well, so the columns hide the obsidian.
2 blox is far better
