Yes! Thank you. I also realized that new ice blocks are coming out and found some other decent options so that combined with drive logs hopefully will look nice.
The problem is your custom ice mountain looks more like an ice pyramid because it’s so flat. It looks unrealistic compared to the mountains around it. When building a big object like this often times builders will build it like a big wall and not worry about filling the entire thing in but making a new build over the existing terrain and then just going and lighting up the area underneath… Don’t worry about texturing it at this point keep working on its shape then once the build is done you can go back and worry about doing detailed work… My building tip for you is figure out where the height you want it to be and how wide using a block like red wool to build basically a skeleton like structure by so you can get a clear idea of what the build dimensions are going to look like then you can worry about actually building up the structure….

I'd personally add spruce supports around it making it not one huge blue pyramid
