However, Gimp is great for experimenting, add your layer, paint in it and run through the layer modes. Possibly one that does have colour in the name, Overlay mode looks promising https://i.imgur.com/0n90Baq.jpg (edit and ps - if using the image from the web site it is in indexed mode, change to RGB)
Thanks for the replies peoples.
I've tried both of those HSL and LCH which either produce peppermint greens or shadows. I guess Gimp can't do it so I'll have to try other options.
Thanks

As says your tutorial:
Quote:When using colour layers I’ve found it’s best to start with a very low opacity brush (10% or less) and never use highly saturated colours. Otherwise you end up with neon lines across your map and it looks very bad very quickly.
In practice you can either use a low opacity brush on layer at 100% opacity, or a 100% opaque brush on a layer with low opacity or a it of both (so that you can still adjust the final effect by adjusting the layer opacity).
Otherwise, screenshots and your settings?
