i generally use this:

D Blues scale on 2 octave (D-F-G-G#-A-C-D-F-G-G#-A-C-D)

Fingering (1-2-3-4-1-2-1-2-3-4-1-2-3)

Fingering (1-2-3-4-1-2-1-2-3-4-1-2-3)

I use 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3. I'm not very comfortable with the 1-2-1 part. If you'd choose for Costans one, I'd prefer 1-3-1 instead of the 1-2-1, but that's personal of course.
