I made one a while back. If you want any chance of surviving, stuff as many artifact mana producers as you can into it.

in my opinion it can be done however red is likely the weakest color in edh. but dont let that stop you some good cards for you would be Dragonspeaker Shaman , Dragonmaster Outcast , Stranglehold , and obviously dragons and other stuff that works well with dragons or your mana rits like Infernal Plunge , and Seething Song and the like hope it goes well!

the only notable ones besides niv-mizzet is Keiga, the Tide Star , and Hypersonic Dragon kegia is the only good mono blue dragon in my opinion the rest are multicolored

In EDH if you're building dargons then you either go Jund or 5-color. It's not really going to work out unless you do.

Any deck can work if you do it right.I think if you make a mono red dragon deck Urabrask the Hidden would make a good commander even though he isn't a dragon.

Zirilan of the Claw is the best commander for this task.

Definitely Zirilan of the Claw in the command zone, I agree.
Because it's only one color, aggression, utility, utility, and maybe some utility. Each of your dragons and spells should have multiple uses, or things when they come into play,
get spells that sneak dragons in.
Dragonstorm , Seething Song , Desperate Ritual , Geosurge , Infernal Plunge for ramp. These are all dark ritual-esque and will burst mana.
Pyromancer Ascension because more spells,
I had a standard deck that used Goblin Arsonist and Infernal Plunge into a Geosurge to drop a turn 2, bloodthirsty Furyborn Hellkite

MidnightDragon you can make that a turn one Furyborn Hellkite but switching the Goblin Arsonist to a Chancellor of the Forge :D Reveal he is in your hand and start game with a goblin in play, goblin can attack turn 1 cause it went through your upkeep. Punch face then plunge, surge, dragon doom funtime!

MisterRoach Indeed, that's even better for EDH as well because it's on a 5/5 body for later.I'd run ways to ping early so I could sneak an early dragon out and make people sad. it would work for about any mono red dragon.
Dragonspeaker Shaman , Urza's Incubator , Crucible of Fire , and Dragonmaster Outcast would also be nice add ins for cheaper casting. Also, forgot about Gauntlet of Power .
I'd recommend some kind of evasion for the dragons, and lots of it. That way they don't get Swords to Plowshares 'd before dragon doom funtime.

it would work. Utvara Hellkite , Scourge of Valkas , Balefire Dragon , Thundermaw Hellkite , Stormbreath Dragon , just to name a few. You miss out on Dragon Broodmother and Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius being mono red, but is well doable.
