Daniel,

If you're rotating around the stationary y-axis then you don't need
AxisAngle.  If you mean that you want to rotate around your object's y axis,
then you'll need to rotate the y unit vector around the same axes that you
have done previously.  This is not a problem with one axis, but becomes
harder if you have previously rotated around multiple axes.
