find outside notes from those modes and add them in.
and/or, subtract notes that you dont need/like
doesnt even have to actually follow a scale across octaves. one shape i always use is a minor pentatonic/blues scale for the 3 low strings, and mixolydian on the same key for the 3 high strings
also
>no lydian
why? just throw lydian over major-ish shit anyways. usually sounds neat. just dont do it over the IV chord. or do. see if i care

>standard tuning
you dont gotta
i like it because it means i can know where all my notes are anywhere. if thats not an issue for you then fuck it
if that IS a concern, try de-tuning the high-strings instead of the low-strings. ime its easier to keep track of alternate tunings if the bass strings are at least the same intervals as in standard
standard with the high string de-tuned to D makes for an interesting one. you have nice close intervals for chords, and it allows slide players to use a LOT more different intervals than they usually could

>E
standard doesnt have to be boring, and it certainly doesnt have to be on E
try and think of scales that have open strings in these modes that you like. then you can use those open strings to pull off to, or drone, or use as a pedal etc
>F# aeolian (E,A,D,b,e)
>A phrygian (E,A,D,g,e)
>G dorian (E,A,D,g,e)
>C mixolydian (E,A,D,g,e)
etc

also bear in mind you can get away with basically any note anywhere so long as you resolve it in a satisfying way
the jazzer rule of thumb is do it on weak beats, resolve on strong beats. but you dont need to be that nerdy/strict about it
