Puzzle Description:

Gibson Girl

#1: Liz P (lizteach) on Jan 15, 2018 [SPOILER]

Lovely image. I had Gibson girls on the brain today (I have a print in my bedroom from the early 1900s, and it's not Gibson, but the woman has her hair up like that).

I think I did some interior edge logic around the eyes; it was a little tricky.

Very pretty.

IEL R22
IEL R24
C20: Regardless whether the black in R25 is part of a 1 clue or a 2 clue, either R24 or R26 is white, which means the 4-clue in that row extends into C24. Those positions in C24 must be a 3-clue, so R24-26 C24 must be black.

That's all I've got for now. Since we're currently marked "much guessing" I'm disinclined to keep going.

I think you could do it Wombat.

Nice image. I think a little guessing is required, not much. Certainly, much of edge of the face can be done with two way logic. I did get messed up at the row with two fives, but realized quickly how they must go.
