************************************
Twenty classic comic characters displayed at the Hong Kong Avenue of Comic Stars have undergone a 3D makeover after 20 well known local action figure designers were invited to take creative licence as part of the Comics x Figures - Hong Kong Ani-Com Figure Show. A show of the action figures debuted in the Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong 2013.
Winson Ma and James Fong were recently handed a special "mission" - to turn two classic comic characters - Wong Siu-fu by comic artist Tony Wong, and Buck-toothed Chun by Kam Siu-man - into brand-new style action figures.
All four artists spoke with news.gov.hk about the project, which aimed to encourage crossover cooperation between different creative sectors while promoting fresh comics and animation talent.
The story appears today (July 28) in news.gov.hk in both text and video version.
