Anatomy on a mythical creature is a bit of a hazy subject, but in theory it has to look anatomically correct.
In simple English that means it has to look like it might exist and that means the neck has to have enough form and muscle to carrry the weight and size of the head and the legs have to be able to hold up the body ect.
One thing to watch out for is the balance of the creature, make sure for instance that the tail is long enough to compensate for the neck and head so it's not top or bottom heavy.
Also you might want to watch the size of the wings, since you are anatomically tied to body/head/neck and legs , the size of the wings must be decided by the total of these factors otherwise if too small it would never fly and likewise if too big then there might not be enough muscle to operate them and it would never fly.
If you are totally confused about animal anatomy i would suggest browsing for some references of simular sized animals ie horses or maybe monitor lizards ect.
Hope this helps a little and give you something to think about.
