Quote:Using Gimp 2.8
Thats is why we need correct information. Gimp 2.8 is different to Gimp 2.10 - generally no on canvas editing.
In Gimp 2.8 the sequence might be. Set FG / BG colours. In the gradient tool options set the offset value ( to zero) Open the Gradient Editor. Duplicate the FG / BG gradient to edit it. Adjust the gradient. Apply the gradient to the selection. something like this https://i.imgur.com/Jsk3Azy.mp4
Your new image is all about making a suitable bump map, however packing in for the night, will look at it tomorrow.
No problem, take you're time! As for the angular gradient issue, it works now, but it doesn't quite produce the same effect as I'd hoped. The gradient starts in the middle, and although I can seemingly adjust it, it isn't the same as in the initial picture, where the gradient went from the bottom upwards (like a linear gradient could do in Gimp) following a curve (unlike the linear gradient).
I tried to use the airbrush/brush with a gradient to try and get a similar effect, but to avail.
