How long have you been drawing? You look like you've only been doing it for a few months. Getting the basics of art done first might be the best thing to do.

I'm hardly the best person to be giving advice, but I believable in this. Understanding 3D space is the most important thing. Then you just look at stuff and draw them. What I mean by this is, I'll see a lot of beginners draw construction lines for a head or something, but what they draw doesn't conform the to axis of their lines. They may think they understand, but they don't even fully grasp the point of what they're attempting to do. It's because they don't understand the shape, they're still looking at it as something 2D. I can't point you to anywhere and tell you that "for sure this guy is going to make you understand" I honestly think that when it comes to drawing, expirience is the only real teacher, and that every person puts pieces of the puzzle together in a different order. I will say this though, perhaps think of drawing as if you're making a sculpture or pouring paint on an invisible object as if to reveal it's true form.

To answer the question in the OP, you just look at real flora/fauna and combine it with other shit.
All I do most of the time is incorporate different animal parts as I draw. Generally, you should have a good understanding of anatomy for this to work well. Of course, you should also consider the kaiju's role as predator or prey and fit natural defenses and abilities in accordance with that.
Here's some of my monsters. Hoping to use them in a webcomic I'm brainstorming.

You obviously aren't looking hard enough.

For drawing with a stylistic design, you require more of a fully realized concept. Do as I recommended before (draw spontaneously without a plan, going with the flow), but sketch very lightly. Then, once you have a general idea of what you are drawing and how it is positioned, start detailing in the style you desire.
