Whisperwall

This puzzle is my second foray into making other common sudoku constraints into walls. This one is pretty straightforward and should be reasonably approachable.
Thanks to Scojo for inspiration for this puzzle.
Rules:
Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Normal German Whisper rules apply. Adjacent digits along a green line must have a difference of five or more. Digits may repeat along a line if allowed by other rules.
All digits on one side of a green German Whisper Wall *must* have a difference of five or more from at least one digit on the other side of the wall. All digits on one side of a wall *must* *not* have a difference of five or more from any other digit on the same side of the wall. Digits may repeat on a wall if allowed by other rules.
Comments are always welcome. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the puzzle. Have fun!

Took a while to grasp the two sides of the walls on curved lines, but eventually was pretty clear and puzzle worked great.
It is kind of a mind bender to have to think of both sides of the wall and how each number relates to the other side.
Very nice concept anyway and an enjoyable solve. Thanks heliopolix!

Thanks for taking the time to solve and comment!
I have had a lot of fun taking a traditional line constraint and making it into a cell-border constraint with a similar feel. Renban lines an German Whisper lines are the ones I've adapted so far.
Glad you had fun, even mind-bending fun!

It's a little bit confusing about the 'side' definition of the bended walls. For example, is r7c1 considered as 'same side' with r7c2 and r6c1? And is r6c1 and r7c2 considered 'same side'?

Thank you for the question!
Yes. Those three cells (r6c1, r7c1, and r7c2) are all on the same 'side ' of the wall, while r6c2 is on the other 'side'. If you imagined four people standing in positions around the corner of a short garden wall, three of those people would be on the same side of it: outside. The fourth person wound be on the other side: inside.

My first German Whisper Wall puzzle...took a little while to get my head around what it meant, but I enjoyed it very much once I got there! Lovely interaction between the various walls. :)
