Randall:
Prunus cerasifera 'Thundercloud', in my opinion, does not have the necessary characteristics to create an outstanding bonsai. In particular, this is a short-lived tree with a 10-15 year lifespan.
If you are interested in Prunus, I suggest Prunus mume or the Japanese Apricot.
Cordially,
Michael Persiano
