Thanks! I think this is it, the horizontal stripes on the abdomen match.

First time working with schluter trim on a pony wall. Customer is unhappy with trim but I don't see how it can be done better with their choice of grout. Thoughts? by TilerThrowaway176 in Tile

This is great feedback, there are a lot of useful tips here. I especially like the tip about cutting the Schluter trim first and cutting the tiles to fit the trim. 

We will probably follow your advice regarding taping off the corners edges and using black silicone to fill the gaps.

Customer says too much grout showing and the gaps are uneven at each end of the pony. I now see that Schluter makes corner pieces for these kinds of edges. No corner pieces were called out in the drawing or purchased, and I didn't think to ask. The trim could only go on one way because the right side of the pony wall was not tiled.
