Underpainting is first painting numbers in a color that doesn’t distract from the color of the translucent dice. This prevents the color used in the numbers from visually “bleeding” from the other facets.
The d12 is underpainted in silver, the d8 isn’t.
It also allows this set to have copper numbers with an ice blue die.

Do you personally have a preference on what paint you use? I’m assuming it’s acrylic? Have you found that some brands work better than others?
That’s very cool. It’s not something I would have even realised was a problem as a layperson.
