This was absolutely brilliant. It took me some time to find the break in. Once I knew how to go about it, it was pretty straightforward and always had some surprises left in the solve path.
This has to be one of the best, albeit hardest, coloring puzzles I've seen.

Very difficult for a 3*, more of a 4* for me. Lots of coloring, and was a challenge to get started
