How the heck do I go about practicing this stuff?

I'm trying to get into drawing mytholigical creatures (mainly dragons) but I can't figure out how to go about actually doing it. All this loomis stuff seems to be about drawing mainly humans, and doing a simple leg with illiterave drawing doesn't help either. The only time when I can draw something decent is when I boot up ANB on my gamecube and draw screenshots of characters. I can never figure out how to get the character in the pose I want without copying parts from a ton of pictures, and even then It looks like shit. How the fuck do I go about doing this?
