The work of the size was worth it to me to get a hippo :)

I wonder if this would be solvable if the colors were swapped.

It wouldn't: some aspects, such as the second and third rows from the bottom, permit for alternative solutions. In this case, the 7x2 rectangle in those two rows can be mirrored (resulting in the color swap of 15 45 / 13 50, as opposed to the original 13 47 / 18 45). The rectangle at issue has one white tile and one black tile in every column, and with the colors swapped, that rectangle (and other areas of the puzzle) would not be well-defined and you'd need additional information.
Loved it! I haven't done many larger puzzles because they're usually too difficult, but I enjoy having an easy one to get me into it a little more.
replyFor half the time I thought it was a roller skate. The end result was both surprising and good.
