Nonogram: Effigies

Nonograms: numbers that draw a picture

The rules

  1. The numbers beside a row or column are the runs of filled cells in it, in order.
  2. Every clue is met at once, and the filled cells draw a picture.
  3. Between two runs there is at least one empty cell.

How to play here

Tap a cell to fill it, again to mark it empty, again to clear it. Drag to mark a run of cells in one stroke.
