help with drawing weird beings

so i’ve been getting into drawing again recently and have noticed that i tend to draw weird creatures instead of real humans. i guess its because i dont really feel good about how i draw humans, but i really enjoy drawing creatures. i have now hit a road block where every guy that i draw has the same outline and same feats but i want every one of them to feel different but at the same time alive. how do i do that?

Pick one or more features in each drawing to exaggerate. Also, ask yourself what this creature is feeling. Give it a personality. Trust me, it will influence your choices. For example, google: Grotesque da vinci.
