If you are making the approximate shape with a bunch of different angles off the compound and then blending by hand, how do you check the contour against the original to be sure it is right?
You can try to "eyeball" it, but how close do you think you'll get? Not very.
You could measure diameters at different depths and get a little closer, maybe.

Of course after doing all the above, one would have spent far less time and had a much more accurate reproduction if you just grind a form tool or two.
