That is one way and would be a suitable process.

My approach is get the handle scales flat and fitted up.
Drill for pins.
Cut handle material to about 1/8"-1/4" oversize.
Epoxy up.
Contour and shape to comfort.
The bolsters can be given a hand rub or buffing that way it is a smooth blend to the handle scales. The painters tape will leave a step so I would suggest gently sanding the bolsters and handle even no tape.
Sanded to about 600 or 1000 then apply the Danish oil.

Then enjoy your new knife!
