Here's how I did it:

After I got tired of searching for color logic (with most of the action in the bottom right corner, but some of the blue pixels as well:

Edge logic on the blue 5 in c25 rules out r7+ or the bottom blue 1 in c24 would not have room. Then Line Logic / Color Logic finishes the blue off.

Extended two-way logic on the red 3 in c20 makes c19r13 red. (If it goes up into r13, then the 6 extends through c19; if it goes down into r16, then it fixes the red 2 in c19, forcing the red 1 to be in r13.) Then LL/CL finishes the red and green.

Edge logic on the 3 in c9 makes r5 white or there'd be a conflict in c8. Then a little LL.

Extended two-way on the 1 in c7 makes c6r2 black. (If in r1, then it extends into c6 - whose 2 clue then makes c6r2 black; if in r2 then it extends through c6.) Then LL finishes the upper left.

Edge logic then can place the entire 7 in c4. (If it went anywhere but r14-20 there would be an immediate conflict in r3.)

Then LL to finish.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

Thx Kurt and Joe.:)

Cool!

Thx Jota.:)

Awesome puzzle!!Totally enjoyed the solve! I look forward to all you puzzles.

Once I read the story I could clearly see the illustration. I did guess 3 times.

Solved logically but definitely tough.
