OOC : It’s a process, I’ll tell you that. Usually I just pick out what scares me or makes me uncomfortable about something, and I include it into the creature. Gore isn’t everything, and too much of it can make it less scary or freaky.
When I was drawing Araudan, I actually listened to a few videos listing the creepiest underwater noises ever recorded, then I just listened to a white noise video of whale calls. I was anxious the whole time, but I think it made a freaky lookin deepsea demon thing 8D Also watching scary movies, games, etc. helps too. At least for me, I really hope that helps D:
