Colour contrasts?

[ffutures]

The cover of the RPG is going to be a lot of gold coins with dragons on them. I need to make the lettering a good contrasty colour - black sort of works but I'm not convinced it's best. I've used red a lot on previous stuff, any suggestions for an alternative?

Here's what the cover looks like at the moment:




Any suggestions?

You should also stack the title:

Tooth <--Big
and <--Small, possibly italic or cursive
Claw <-- Big

I was thinking of making the "and" smaller since it's on the cover of the book that way. Agree it does look nicer.
