It'll be a case of patience, more than skill I think. The important thing to remember is that this finish is NOT a stain IN the wood grain. It is a colored (tinted or toned) surface layer of a hard finish (lacquer) OVER the wood grain.

And yes, I agree that slightly darker will likely work better than a lighter tone.
