The Secret of NIMH - Markus

Yay! A fan character for The Secret of NIMH!

This is me as a Secret of NIMH character - Markus the rat.

I've drawn him as a normal rat before he had the injection, somewhere on the bottom left, and the main picture on the left is Markus after he had the intelligence injection at NIMH. Shortly after Jonathan Brisby helped the Rats of NIMH escape, Markus developed a knack for mechanics and maintenance. On the top, you can see him helping out Mr Ages with one of the machines similar to what you can see in the rose bush in the film. He tried to make himself a circlet to boost the electrical patterns in his brain, but.. unfortunately, when he put it on, it had a certain side effect. Every so often, he suffers a short electric shock, shown on the far right. He is very intelligent, even for one of the Rats of NIMH, but he was easily intimidated by Jenner (shown at the bottom) because Markus believed in Nicodemus' Thorn Valley plan.

I may be drawing more Secret of NIMH in the future.
