While working on this image, I was trying to figure out how to make sure that the figures were looking at the correct place, when a thought came to me.  This trick is probably old hat to most, but since I'm an old fogey it takes me a while!

Anyway, what I did was:

1.  Create new camera
2.  Place camera just in front of the eyes of the figure, making sure that the camera was lined up with the head looking out
3.  Parenting camera to the neck segment I was going to translate
4.  Switching view to the new camera, thereby looking through the figures eyes
5.  Posing the neck segment. 

While doing the posing, the camera constantly kept what the eyes saw so i could adjust it exactly as needed.

Anyway, as i said, probably old hat to most; but new to me.  I'll have to try this trick in other apps, if possible.
