Alas I am no expert, I watch a lot of creature creation how-to videos, and if you want advice on how to make your own monsters I recommend doing the same (I found videos to be most helpful, as they actually show how to blend and what colors to apply in certain areas and what not). Searching for horror make up on YouTube for example turned out a lot of really awesome videos with insane looking effects https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...horror+make+up

However you'd probably want to emphasize more on 'creature' rather than 'horror' or the most you'll get is how to make realistic looking wounds (which is still entertaining if you have time to kill). My favorite is naturally 'werewolf make up' and with that you can observe and gain tips on how to blend prosthetics, as well as see how certain ones work and which may be best for you.

Make up and prosthetics are easy enough to acquire if you Google search for 'monster prosthetics'.
After only searching the first page I found:
http://www.mostlydead.com/
http://www.instantmonsters.com/store.html
http://www.screamteam.com/collection...atexappliances
and more.

Try different things and practice and see what works best for you. 8)

If you're not in the art field but need someone to make your monster and you have the qualifications, consider taking up an art student intern. Or hiring a professional in general.
