Is there any way to create that effect in real mahogany or figured wood in general where where you look at it you see darker highlights then you tilt the wood and you see lighter almost iridescent effect within the figuring. I restore old radios from the 1930s through the 50s many have magnificent veneers which are really expensive to buy now if the veneer is destroyed and still are not the quality of the veneers from 70 to 80 years ago. I appreciate your attention to detail but I don't see how this will trick a person that this is real wood unless they don't have a great eye. That said I think you are an artist and I mean no insult. I imagine this is the best way to create faux wood effects I have seen. I just notice things like how the figuring of real wood dances in the light when you tilt it. I have mastered woodgrain effects in miniature since I have for decades built ww1 plastic aircraft models which many had wooden propellors and fuselages. I use acrylic undercoat with artist oils with soft brushes as overcoat. Right now I am debating on a rare 1937 Zenith console I recently got which the veneer is trashed on the top as well as the burl side accents. The veneer to redo this costs alot but so do the brushes to duplicate your techniques . I just can't tell on this screen if it is worth it for me who, I feel I could duplicate your techniques with practice and the right tools vs. just buying veneer and doing it correctly. Any advice?

Where are you from? You sound like you are from New Orleans. I grew up here and the accent sounds familiar.
