\documentclass[11pt,border=4pt,multi=page,crop]{standalone}
\usepackage{feynmp-auto}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{pgffor} % for \foreach
% DEFINE TEXT COLORS
\definecolor{collep}{rgb}{.1,.6,.1} % lepton (green)
\definecolor{colvtx}{rgb}{.1,.1,.7} % vertex (dark blue)
% DEFINE COLOR MACROS
% The following loops over the user color names and defines
% a handy \<colname> command to set text color, as well as
% defines colors in MetaPost of the same and value for lines
\usepackage{pgffor} % for \foreach
\def\MPcolors{} % MetaPost code importing xcolor names
\foreach \colname in {collep,colvtx}{ % create command & MetaPost code
\expandafter\xdef\csname\colname\endcsname{\noexpand\color{\colname}}% \newcommand\<colname>
\convertcolorspec{named}{\colname}{rgb}\tmprgb % get rgb code
\xdef\MPcolors{\MPcolors color \colname; \colname := (\tmprgb); } % add color name
}
% DEFINE fmfpicture ENVIRONMENT
% The following defines a custom picture environment that
% helps to create standalone pages with common settings,
% and correctly padding the diagram with \fmfframe
\usepackage{environ} % for \NewEnviron
\NewEnviron{fmfpicture}[3]{%
