Puzzle Description:

Called "The Lion and the Stone," created by user Marto Benwa. The original image was charming, but unsolvable.

It's the logo for Holden automobiles, a subsidiary of General Motors.

Extraordinary! Made my day!

Wonderful image. Very tough puzzle. Really had to concentrate. Did have to guess, but only once right near the end.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

After a tiny amount of LL
EL 10 r2 places it
LL
EL 8 r48 = c14-19, c32-40 white
LL
EL 14 r47 places it
LL to finish

Fantastic, thank you!

The original had massive guessing. I mostly thickened some lines to make it solvable, and completed his mane.

Oh, and I extended the puzzle from a 47x47 to a 50x50, to simplify counting.

Great puzzle. I thought it was a globe for most of the solve

I solved both images. Like the original, great image. Good job.

Very nice job of salvaging what was a nice image but difficult puzzle. Still a nice image but much more pleasing to solve. Thanks for pointing me to it.

Happy to oblige! It was too nice an image to be left with multiple solutions.
