I've always considered dragons pretty boring. They just didn't "speak to me" the same way most other mythical creatures do, yet I have a love for old dragon statues, of which there are plenty in Denmark. Especially our capital, Copenhagen, is a Dragon City with loads and loads of dragons in both obvious and unexpected places.
They rarely look like what we have come to expect a dragon to look like these days, which is probably why I like them. These are some of my favorites.

The most famous dragon would be the one fighting a bull in the Dragon Fountain, but I didn't draw it here because it's actually not a dragon, but a lindorm (closely related to dragons, but not actual dragons). The little creatures surrounding the fountain are however dragons (The small one at the bottom in the picture).

The middle picture is one of three dragons who have their tails twirled to make the tower of Børsen, also in Copenhagen. I like them because of their huge cute ears and ridiculously long tails.

The top picture is a dragon from Slagelse where they have this creature in a fountain outside the church. I'm in love with it's creepy long fingers and chubby body.

No matter what series of Beyblade I find myself making OC's for, Hydra always qualifies. Bakuten Shoot was just anything, MFB was constellations, and Zero-G is mythical creatures. THE DREAM REMAINS ALIVE!

a "lindorm" is also what people normally would call a "Wyrm" i'm pretty sure :D

I always heard 'wyrm' as just an old word for dragon. Smaug(the dragon from The Hobbit) for example is referred to as a 'wyrm' and he's pretty much your stereotypical western dragon.

But look at these dragons! [link]
Well, if you still don't like to draw them, to each their own.
