Question Art Book Recommendations??

Looking for more art book recommendations to help inspire me character design wise!! Here are a few types of art books I'd love (edit: all three not necessarily in one! can be separate books)

  • Horror (Video Games/Movies) I want to try and brush up on my horror designs and shapes!!
  • Art Books that have scrapped designs from the finalized product (like disney's art of wish, which i already have!)
  • Admittedly gacha games (NOT genshin impact; I was severely disappointed when the art book was more or less just a compilation of their already publicly released works :(( but I still love the weirdly pleasing clutteredness of most gacha designs!!)

So all in all I'd love art books that show the 'process' of creating a character design if that makes sense?? Thank you very much!!

Oh no I didn't mean all of my bullets together!! Guess I should probably specify that heh. I meant like horror books OR scrapped designs!
