OK, here's some stuff that will start to look familiar. I got to the point that the overall shape is getting much closer and got one of the lenses roughly blocked out.
Here's the rough blank. You can see the xmetal and carbon earstems in the background, sitting on the carbon briefcase.
Profile from the top. All of the grayish cut areas will go back to a richer black once it's clearcoated.
One lens blocked out. The hole will need a lot of hand work to get to the exact size. That will be a slow process, a little at a time. You can cut stuff away, but can't put it back!
As I continue I'm starting to see some deviations from the Juliet form, so I don't think I'll have a 100% accurate reproduction, but it will be close enough to the spirit of the Juliet that I'll be ok with calling it one. :)
I'm guessing that I've got about 12-15 more hours of work to get it done. All of the remaining parts are the tricky bits, where you have to go slow. My plan is to get both lenses in place and sized correctly, and then work the outer profile to make everything symmetrical. I'm debating on whether to cut the lower orbital for the screw that tightens it up. I'd hate to mess that part up...
