Clock face with color

The quick answer is use individual characters 1 to 12 Each can have an individual colour. These can be rotated if required. I would advise going that way.

   

There is another way, a bit more advanced, putting number text along a path. That generates another path of the numbers. Put that to a selection and paint in the selections as required. The text font really needs to be a mono-spaced and the circle size has to be calculated from the length of the text. Really for when you get more experience.
I will attach the xcf.gz file, opens straight up in Gimp, have a look at the layers and paths as an example. The font is freemono bold. Not sure if that comes with Windows.
