Bumpmap based on the use of the 2D bumpwave map. 3 seed points
are used. The seed points of the bwavex... textures are situated along

two parameters which can be adjusted: the "wave_rot" parameter, which
determines how quickly a given spiral curves, and the "wave_radius"
parameter, which determines the distance from the center of the spiral
to the first completed rotation of the spiral. By adjusting these
parameters, it is possible to place the seed points in seemingly
random locations within the texture
