As we approach the end of this project's run, I would just like to sum up the most critical bits of information in all the previous updates, as well as release one final update for the model.

Firstly, I have thought about some of the comments that point out that the nose is a little blocky while the visor is a little unrealistic, and agree that these are valid points. As such, I have revised the design for the nose, adding more cheese slopes and replacing the two 1 x 2 tiles(with grille) with two trans black 1 x 2 tiles.

Check out the new (final) model!:

*Note: Some of you may notice that there is a slight disparity between my part count (1141 bricks, see below) and the LDD count (1111 bricks). This is because the file only includes the two extra tails (without part optimization) and not the extra white bricks required to remove the blue stripe along the fuselage.

Now, to sum up:​

Final part count of Concorde and the Bristol Olympus is 889 bricks (Concorde=868, Olympus & trolley=21). This will be the base model, as proposed in the original draft, should Lego decide that the part count is too high to add any of the other accessories. Final model of the Olympus jet engine

of Concorde and the Bristol Olympus is 889 bricks (Concorde=868, Olympus & trolley=21). as proposed in the original draft, should Lego decide that the part count is too high to add any of the other accessories. Final model of the Olympus jet engine Mobile staircases are each made up of 63 bricks, meaning that if two of them are added, the total part count will be brought up to 1015 bricks. 1 x mobile staircase

1 x mobile staircase Microfigures would be nice, but these are not so critical to the main idea so I won't be pushing for them

Lastly, the liveries:

To add the option for all three liveries, British Airways, Air France and British Airways (Classic), 126 bricks (possibly less if optimized further) are needed, so this would bring the part count up to 1015 bricks without the mobile staircases and 1141 bricks with the staircases.

A final word

Thanks everyone for such a a tremendously fun journey! When I first started out on Lego IDEAS my best projects merely had LDD screenshots for illustrations, but throughout this whole process I've had the refreshing, mind blowing, brain racking opportunity to learn POV-ray, simple code and how to run a social media campaign.

It has been my pleasure to receive your delighted comments upon the release of a major update or the passing of a significant milestone and to see my model grow with your constructive criticism and input. Even if this project doesn't pass the review, I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to develop this project with you and experience what it's like to be a Lego designer, to build and to propose a new set.

Thank you, thank you all and have a magnificent New Year!
