How to train your dragon?

CONGRATULATIONS, Robin!!! You are the GRAND PRIZE WINNER of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!

This was to be the best puzzle I created (not that my standards are high). I had it perfect. Unsolvable. Add some pixels, unsolvable. Add some red, unsolvable. I was very close, but gave up at the end. I had attempted 29 solves and spent at least 12 hours designing it and attempting to solve it. I added enough at the end that I knew it would be solvable (and solved it). Kind of a letdown...

May have been a let down for you, Tom but I enjoyed solving it and the finished image is very good.

Thanks, Nancy. It kind've looks like a perch, and my knight was small, and I thought the original image was dramatic.

I should have left the left side alone. It solved (the left side). The right side was impossible. It should have been a small knight at least. Enlargening it did nothing. I finally closed the dragon's mouth, and got the continuity of black pixels that made it solvable. The 2B, 2R 3B in some column 2/3s of the way to the right is what did it. It was very frustrating. Thought it was going to be my masterpiece,,,

I ended up with a fire breathing perch...

Definitely looks like a toothless dragon to me! Nice job, Tom. I appreciate the work you did to make it solvable.
