I just started going to the gym and I was thinking how I could get bulky abs/core rather than flat abs, so that I could fill that gap or curve on the side of my body.
What kind of exercises are best at building upper obliques or whatever muscles there may be on the lower part of my rib cage?
So anyway how could I get a bulky core like Usain Bolt or someone like that, to really get a legit V rather than a Y or an X taper?

I know what you mean OP. People get flat abs because they don't actually hit them directly, or they only train them on a cut.
Just make sure you train them regularly a few times a week like the rest of your body with a heavy weight. I'd say 10 reps is probably optimal for that. Try cable crunches for starters. That should be all you need till you max the machine out.
