We assume that this dragon statue fountain by Master Majesty drew inspiration from the Merlion Statue and took it a step better.
In a clever twist, this extraordinary fountain design shifts away from the Merlion and introduces a majestic dragon that spouts water from its mouth.
One idea that came to our mind is to use lava for this fountain to make it appear that the dragon is spitting flames from its mouth.
Materials used for the fountain include cobblestone blocks, stairs, slabs, redstone lamps, spruce trapdoors, stone slabs, and redstone torch.
Heart Lava Fountain

You can also experiment with the overall shape of the moon and make it look sharper. Using other materials such as quartz can also take the overall look of this build to the next level.
Stone Fountain
If you are planning to build a Greek-style fountain, this Stone Fountain designed by Ector Vynk might give you some ideas. Now, the entire structure is made from stone, which gives it a dull appearance.
