It needs more explanation on why you are doing what you are doing, this way people aren't just copying but learning how to apply to their own situtations. Other than that it explains how to get the job done. Pretty good.

Opps, I'm sorry Orph, but I need quality more than size. Any lower jpg quality looked bad.

I agree with rs6 that further explanation as to why you are setting the properties you are and what changing the values would do would be helpful, but as it stands it does get the job done.

You forgot to mention adding an env_lightglow entity at the end of the tunnel to give it a more realistic look.
