Thanks folks! I'm blushing.
My first try on coloring the plane - RLM 02 mostly.
The large bare metal part beneath the cockpit is questionably. Will remedy this later.
The V18 was a relatively long living prototype which went from the U1 to the U2 version. Don't know the difference between the two. Finally after an accident it got full camouflage and ended up being one of the TA-152 H prototypes. So you can color it at will.

Well I have decided Night Fighter Nut.
I'll do it in RLM 02.
The decals:
Decals and a little weathering.
I wonder if I should do The bare metal parts on the engine cowl with foil.

Hi Crimea_ River,
It's always the same procedure. When a model nears its finishing I get "the built is finished blues". Lasts till I have a new idea.
Think I'll do a halftrack for some change.

You have a lot of talent Michael.

Well this is an aircraft forum. But to please you just one tiny pic:
Back to the wings:
The canopy is finished with self-adhesive metalfoil as are the two panels on the cowl.
Had some difficulties in applying the metalfoil over the hunp on the left side. It looks worst in the pic than in reallity - Ihope so.
What's left to do is applying the undercarriage and the antenas.

Lovely job Michael
of course, I must update my request to have you include this build in your photo line-up
It's going to be a cracking parade of Luftwaffe one-offs
