Puzzle Description:

Charlie Brown & Snoopy

Yay! More Peanuts. I'm a huge fan.

I thought this was quite well-executed as an image, and it was fun to solve. But I was wondering what they are looking for in the sky...The Great Pumpkin? Is Snoopy wishing he were up in the air chasing the Red Baron? Are they trying to find the kite stuck in the tree? :)

Really cute image, and lots of fun to solve, even with the guessing.

Liz, now you have me wondering the same thing. It looks like they are sitting on a pier watching the ocean. Maybe Charlie is just daydreaming about that red-headed girl. :-)

Yes, Teresa, you got it!!!

fabulous perspective!! I saw charlie from his shirt, but I was unsure until the very end!

Thanks, Gabriel!

No guessing required; all it takes is a little internal edge logic.

Once you have everything but Charlie's head (can be solved with line and color logic to that point), take a look at the possibilities for the 6 in R24. Only one placement of these squares will not cause a contradiction in R23. You can get a few more squares filled in with line logic, then take a look at the 8 in R22. You should have 4 of these squares placed already; if you go more than 2 out on either side, there is a contradiction in R21.

The rest can be solved with line logic.

Fantastic!

Great image! Well done!
Suspected who it was when I recognized the red sweater; knew for sure when I recognized Snoopy's body.

Thx, CB
