"Tan" M&M Remembered

I grew up in the 1950s, so I remember the "tan" colored M&M. Also, in researching this, I learned that the "tan" color was actually the original color when M&M's first came in, I believe in 1941.

Anyway, I wanted to do something with the subject in a drawing, but just drawing an M&M or one of the modern characters wasn't enough. So after drawing a "tan" M&M of my own making, I put it on the front of a 1960 Volkswagen street rod. The street rod was developed off of a drawing of a stock VW that I drew for my brother.

I couldn't find an M&M character in the position and expression I wanted, so I had to make my own using an existing jpg file as a reference.

very nice Ron. Great work.

That's fun Ron!

You are the master of named colors as well. Great image Ron.

That's just perfect, Ron.

Great work Ron. I especially like the violet one, to my eyes at least the colors seem to work well together.

Thank you all.

Reworking old drawings, or ‘drawrings’ as they say in parts of GB, gets tiring. So, I got the urge to add something different.

"Tan" M&M incognito as "Red" M&M.

Great work Ron:cool:
