Character Animator - Face Orientation Issues

Question

Hey guys,So I'm having some issues when I introduce the behavior Head Turning to my characters.  I'm getting some pulling/warping going on with the eyes as well as my eyelids don stay on the eyes.  As I turn they float off of them.  I tried checking all my tags and looked at my .ai file to see if I mislabeled anything or put it in the wrong order.  I can't see to see what I'm doing.  Some help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the file, I took a closer look - it looks like the lids aren't lined up in the artwork itself:

That's the issue. Go back to the AI and toggle all those layers on to ensure they line up properly. That should do it!

With head turns it may make sense to make more parts independent. Note Wilk from http://okaysamurai.com/puppets/ - his eyes, mouths, etc are all independent so they won't pull/warp during the turns. If this causes them to float off too, use the staple tool to keep them fixed into place.
