That warrants a look into how vent figures achieve that, for eye
controls are among the hardest to make, personally.   Marionette eyes
are intriguing as well.   Bil Baird's eye controls blew my mind, the
legs and knee joints as well but they aren't nearly as baffling as
eyes.  There are at least four unfinished eye mechanisms sitting next
to my work bench.
