Dont really know of any in mind, if you find your hitting a brick wall with things try just hitting random youtube maybe.

Sorry cant help much but i can tell you how learnt sound design, first thing to do is find a BASIC synth nothing with too much going on and once you get to grips with the differnce between example your amp env, attack, decay, sustain & release you can start to in your mind put together a picture of what sound you looking for i.e. bass shorter sustain and decay with little or no release or a pad is long attack with a long sustain and decay and release to whenever you want the string/pad to drop and fade out etc.

Sorry you probably know these kind of things but thats where i built from doing that, infact i spent 4 years making entire songs from kick drum up on sylenth1, thats amazing synth to learn on imo.

Hope that helps and sorry if it dosent.

Best
Alex!

Search for Sound On sound synthesis tutorials articles, they were published like abot 5 years and cover all the basics of substractive and FM, and then they are ones dedicated to synthetize specific sounds.
