Jeff you are correct, even the best of the best use some filler. Take a look at Rad Rides by Troy you will see a skim coat of filler used to give it that very straight and flat look. Not saying it can't be done with out filler but the labor involved would be crazy long. As it is now it takes a loooong time to get them that straight.
