Personally, I subfile *everything* that might possibly rotate. e.g. The
left hand and whatever it's carrying goes into mflhand.dat, and this file is
centered on the axis of rotation; the left arm and mflhand.dat go into
mflarm.dat; the torso has mflarm.dat and mfrarm.dat; etc.
Also, LDAO has a Minifig Modeller, which does a lot of the grunt-work for
you.
