I'd almost forgotten about this thread. The weather finally broke and I was able to finish up this cabinet. The camera makes it appear darker than it really is. In real life, the wood is visible. The big problem is that on this cabinet, the veneer is so thin, it is like tissue paper. It really limits the ability to hide repairs... I decided to go with some shading to help hide the veneer and scroll repairs. So there is a mixture of univeral walnut and dark walnut on the edges. The repairs are almost invisible now.
I think it came out pretty good. It was the best I could do.
