Japan Painting

Question by tarmanarmos: Which Dragon do you like better?
The Western Dragons as depicted in Medieval Art or the Oriental Dragons from China, Japan, and other Oriental cultures.
Western Dragons were viewed as evil, usually killed by heroic Knights rescuing the princess or some fair maiden.
Oriental Dragons are revered, bringers of good fortune provided you stay on their good side of course!
They are heavily seen in Oriental art, paintings, statues, et., etc.

Best answer:

Answer by Safyre
I’m afraid my bias is toward western dragons.
This is purely from an aesthetic point of view.
I find oriental dragons too serpentine for my tastes.
Not that I have anything against snakes, I just prefer a great big, lumbering, fire-breathing dragon that sits on any knight that *dares* raise a sword against it – WUMFFFF.
