Beautiful colouring puzzle! It was a 3 stars difficulty for me, but no doubts about 5 stars for beauty. Thank you, ebiggie!

42mins 42 seconds. Normally I stick to one star puzzles, but I was sure (by the picture) that something could be done. Thank you for the very pleasant challenge!

Thanks fragglerock1981, and I think 42min. is pretty respectable. :)

Splendid solve. Was a bit tougher than I expected at 2*, but maybe I missed something easy. Took nearly 24 minutes. Such a fun time. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks PinkNickels. Yeah, I had it set at 3*, but I knew all you sudoku wizards would make an easy run of it. :D

ebiggie, you didn't have to do this! This is greatly, greatly appreciated, more than I can express in words.
Thank you so much! This was really fun to solve and the kindness of strangers sometimes on the internet really makes me tear up.
Thank you for your kindness.

I think this is an approachable 3*, but probably a 2* for all the wizards on this site :). Dedicated to alzika who has requested this type of puzzle.
