Ok, I made a skin for a gun, and I want to have a nice light shine from the front of it and slowly fade away as it goes along the gun. Its pretty hard to do this with just the dodge tool. So I want to use a gradient over the texture instead of the dodge tool. But when I use gradient, it just covers the whole texture which none of the texture can be seen, and doesnt overlap the texture like I want it to. I think to fix this problem I gotta set a transparency or something? any help would be appreciated.

Look into Layer Masks. Also layer blending modes.
