I stand by my observation of faking the grain. All you have to do is look at the before & after photos I've been a stock maker for 40 years & know when the grain's been faked and/or enhanced. It's especially easy with English Walnut. You add black lines with an air brush or felt pin & some stains. I'm a purest when it comes to wood. Leave it natural and if you want highly figured wood buy good wood; don't fake it.
