: What is the best way for me to fill these gaps?
: Will I be able to see the areas where I filled in? Somebody please tell me
: no. I want this to be my own little work of art not something that has
: noticeable gaps in it
: think I made things hard for myself by designing a very unique stripping
: pattern.

whether or not you'll see the patch(of whatever material) depends on a variety of characteristics:

the first are the edges of this to be filled in area. - is at least one edge crisp and logically follows the strip glue lines. can you actually see the glue lines on ea side of the gap? is one of the edges strips narrow? is one more dark than the other. does it make form or colour or grain sense to match one particular strip than the other? in the over all scheme does this little gap matter?

will it make more sense to even out the gap and put in a splinter of matching wood and score the glueline past the gap and make it more obvious on one side than the other so it just looks like a small deviation in the one strip?

if filler is used, the glue line character may be slightly lost so maybe rescore one side and force in some typical glue so the line continues thru on one side, so it doesn't look like glueline, mush, glueline.

i've had some success of colour matching by filling a plastic one cup container full of wood dust from the strips, shaking it up to evenly mix, sanding the container top rough and dividing into eight pie slices w/ a perm marker. THen take some neutral colour waterbased filler and mix different proportions all around the top going from a 100% wooddust/glue mix proportionally around by 1/8 changes to 100% neutral filler and let dry. Then dampen the area to be filled as well as these test patches to pre decide the mixture proportion of the filler to be used here. (straight wood dust and glue will be usually dark to match). you can take the container close to any area, wet the area and dampen the top and decide right there - sorta like colour chips. the wetting is to simulate the epoxy.

If you have only a few areas, mask so only the gap shows and mush in w/ a flat kitchen or putty knife. (quicker and less messy and smeary to sand out.)
