Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by blurglecruncheon.

This was an interesting puzzle for me! Its solvability wasn't marked, so ! I was curious if it could be solved by line and color logic alone. It could not.

I was able to place the reds and some of the black squares including those in rows 27 and 28.

Then I looked at the left 4 in row 28 and found a quick contradiction if it was just to the left of the black 2.

But even if I missed line/color logic above, it looks like one gets stuck at the end. Smile logic is needed in columns 12 and 13.
