Missed Connection
If you commented on stuff recently asking me to design your Blitz Ninja Gundam or whatever (you know who you are) please send me a Note with the details. Sorry, but I can't find where they're written down.
Huge Upload
I realize it's been awhile since I've posted a darn thing and I also realize that since I haven't had a website in ages, I need to upload all of my old works.

That little Stash bucket there holds pretty much every Frankengundam I've ever made, including ones I've already uploaded to DeviantArt 'cause I'm too lazy to go through the weed those ones out. Feel free to use them in your RPGs, fanfics, nonprofit carnival games, whatever you want as long as you credit me and link to my DA gallery. You can also send me links to whatever you're using them for so I can see if you want.
All the cool kids did this a week ago...
How long have you been on DeviantArt?
12 years, apparently.
What does your username mean?
It's an old username from the mid-90s. It might be older than my younger brother. Draco is a name commonly associated with dragons and Starcloud...well...back in the 90s, someone showed me this 90s-as-frack banner that had animated glitter on it and it just said "Starcloud." The person asked if anyone wanted to use it, I liked the way it sounded, and I've kept it ever since. The Starcloud part actually came first and I added Draco later.
Describe yourself in three words.
Robot in disguise?
Are you left or right handed?
Right-handed. Up until 7th Grade I was left-handed but then I stopped confusing left and right. I do a few things better left-handed though.
What was your first deviation?
It was a picture of a Gundam I actually drew myself. I'd been making Franken-Gundams for years before joining dA but I didn't put any up at first.
What is your favourite type of art to create?
Comics. I get to write the parts that actually tell the story while using the photo to fill in setting details. It sounds lazy when I say it like that.
If you could instantly master a different art style, what would it be?
Definitely drawing. If I could draw my own robots, I probably would never do a Franken-Gundam again.
What was your first favourite?
It is apparently a picture of Spider-Man and Venom.
What type of art do you tend to favourite the most?
Fan art, for sure.
Who is your all-time favourite deviant artist?
I don't have a favorite. Anyone I like enough to follow is as good as the other guys I like to follow.
If you could meet anyone on DeviantArt in person, who would it be?
Already have. She's great. Even let me sleep on an extra bed.
How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
By sharing interests out of DeviantArt.
What are your preferred tools to create art?
Photoshop 5.5 - old school!
What is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
90% of my art is at some point worked on in my bedroom. If not there, then wherever I'm at with a digital camera, a Transformer, and my laptop.
What is your favourite DeviantArt memory?
Finding out that, for a time, I had a nemesis! Some guy who would occasionally pop in just to hate on my Franken-Gundams! I think he lost interest when he found out I was more amused than insulted.
Looking for Ideas
It's 2014 and as those of you paying attention know I actually did some Frankengundams recently. Shock and terror!
Anyway, I'd like to try making at least one or two a month, if not a weekend. Not a very ambitious goal I admit, but it's a start. I need ideas though.
So if you have ideas, feel free to post them and I'll make ones I like.
What NOT to suggest: Naruto, One Piece, Halo*, Pokemon*, things that are already mechs or have mech forms**, anything I've already done, and real people.
*I like Halo and Pokemon, but I've done tons of those already.
**Examples: power armors like Iron Man and Samus, characters with existing robot forms like Sonic the Hedgehog and Godzilla, Pacific Rim jaegers, Battletech mechs. If you really need to know if something is disqualified, go ahead and ask.
