The frustration with adding a new animation is that unanticipated noises develop inside the head. You may recall that I'm adding crossed eyes to my repertoire. The small screen door eyes that I attached to the side of the eyeballs bang against the interior of the head behind the nose when the eyeballs move left and right. I've had to place a tiny pad between the eyeballs to quiet the noise. That's not easy to do when the eye mechanism has already been placed and secured.
Because I make little guys, working inside the head feels like I'm working on a Swiss watch.
