The horse head is now at the PT:

In the end the way I had in mind didn't work out as plant - still too much work to do and the result wasn't satisfying.
* Moved the projection of the pattern at x=10
* Added Philo's edge file as subpart
* Used the outer rim of Philo's file to get the border at the right distance
* Brought in the existing 4492s00.dat - Animal Horse Head Side Surface
* Moved sections of the pattern (mostly based on color) very close to the surface
* "Merge To Nearest Face"
* CRTL+E of those vertices which were reused in the pattern from the imported template
