My main problem with this is that it involves a lot of
Colours(everything apart from yellow and white) touching colours. Which
disobeys the rules of heraldry. So, I suggest the following:
Make the black white and the purple red.
The former could also be yellow, and the latter any other colour. But I
have to say, I do like the Red and White.
