I've been having trouble drawing my storyboard because I can't get the angles and shots right (arghh), so after failing at drawing my storyboard so many times I decided to do it in 3D, because Maya will allow me to set the camera the way I want to do it giving me a lot of freedom to try different shots in a short amount of time.
Today I 3d modeled a kayak(don't know if this will be the final version of it, but will definitely update it) and will also model a quick mock up of my character, probably using just a box for the body and a sphere for the head keeping it really simple so I can carry on with playing around with different shots for my storyboard, because once I do the shots in Maya I plan to take those snapshots into Photoshop and draw a cleaner version of my storyboard/animatic.
Here's a picture of my 3d kayak.
