I personally prefer Western dragons (The ones with four legs and a pair of wings) for my recreational needs (I.E. drawing, writing, ect.), but Eastern (I'm assuming that's what you mean?) dragons are more academic-ish to me because they have Asian mythology and they just feel down right more mystical in my opinion, so yeah.
Not sure if that would help anyone, but I would personally go for Western, as I'm familiar with that kind and I think it's easier to get it down (As, you know, four legs, a head, a torso, wings, and a tail. Easy.) to the correct anatomy.
