Vagar, Gasadalur to Klaksvik




Kollafjørður? Looks like Kalbaksfjørður to me


Tjørnuvík, Sundini, Kollafjørður (Stills/landscape )

Nice!!

No. 2 video shows most of the route I´ve been driving back and forth 3 to 5 times a day, 5 days a week for nearly 6 years :?

All in a Scania 142, 6+2 with hydraulic taglift. And most of the time with a Hammer sideloader for 20" and 40" containers...

Loved every single minute off that time :D

It is Kalbaksfjørður :)
The video is called "Tórshavn-Kollafjørð" because that is what we locals say if to exsplaine what road the video is showing.
The village "Kalbak" is on the other side off the fjord, so in reality has nothing to do with the name off the road in the video ;)
Faroes YouTube posters do rarely think that other than locals will see there uploads :0

Lots and lots of panorama shots from Faroe Islands

Hope to rebuild this tunnel one day
"Disco lights" can be done by creating tunnel sections like eg the exits in the ETS2 tunnels

Haha that's an easy one, I'll post an image from zmodeler later today :D
Allthough I am not able to make it actually work in game just started this modeling venture

I believe the Arlberg Tunnel with quite a few different tunnel sections can be used as concept, but obvious model/texture are quite different
You have railing models which are addons with emergency exit doors to be placed inside the tunnel

Btw not to offend anyone it's actually light art created to keep the driver alert when giong through the long tunnel

Concept for Nordoya Subsea Tunnel

Emergency stop
Exit.jpg
Exit.jpg (53.35 KiB) Viewed 3809 times
The emergency rest place can be created as whole tunnel section like eg arlberg_tunel_02 or _03 shown above
Start15m and End15m is the enter and exit sections and Center15m should the rest place it self, telephone booth can be created as a sing like tunnel emergency exits

This is a part of the Arlberg Tunnel created in the End15m section

Image

Other tunnel pieces
Creating similar models/signs just with lights in ceiling and no walls or other interiors can be used for creating the art light sections
Don't know if lamps with the lamp post would be an better idea

Can you help me by providing images of animal/wildlife guards which prevents sheep from escaping the designated grassing area
I can find a lot but not from Faroe Islands, saw one a couple of months back but cant find it now

It look like at bridge over a small creek but with a metal grid across the road instead of asphalt or concrete as surface, it had also some metal grid fence on each side

Something like this but with a fence
