Would it be too difficult/time consuming to see what that would look like with coloured hounds Liam? They look awfully flat, and kind of detract from the point of the scarlet - like making the statement that wearing the jacket is more important than the role of the hounds

I don't think you need to colour the hounds, but maybe a little more contrast might help make them stand out a bit more, just a thought !

I agree,  but I'll need to drop a shadow on the writing on the left so it's legible.

the greater contrast darkens the main horse in the picture, so leads the eye into the scene better - though the hounds being pale become less of a feature than they were before
