Not focused extensively on clouds, but saved this YT video for later, which shows basic techniques to produce clouds using oil paint, but probably also applicable to acrylic paints as well: https://youtu.be/moq5H1eaIzA
Hope it's helpful to you!

I haven't painted in a long time..but perhaps like a gouache, or just get really good at dry brushing?
I think the thing your avoiding is the thing you should learn. Consistency = skill.
Learn the touch yknow.
Do different paints dry brush differently? I guess that's kind of the same question. I'll just have to experiment.
Yea each paint is different. Even different colors can be slightly different.
I think you just have to paint lots and lots of clouds tbh.
I am OK at painting, like I know the process, and used to be pretty into it, but I am out of the loop, sorry.
Painting is very tactile. There's little separation between you and the medium. You just have to do it a bunch yknow.
Just thought I'd pop in.
Yes they do, and its almost impossible to say which is "best". There's one that's best for your paper/canvas, your brushes and your technique. The only way to find the best for you, is to buy a few tubes of different brands and see which ones you prefer/find easiest. And don't worry about wasting paints if you don't like them; stick with white and primary colours and you can use the others for different techniques. You can even mix paint of different brands, to get a balance between them.
