Looking good Gary!!!!
I hate making custom window openings in brick walls, especially the thicker ones like Walthers and DPM, but sometimes you have to. My technique is, instead of trying to do a flush mount as it looks like you've done, I mount the window on the inside. If needed, I will add a little more to the outside frame of the window, especially if I am cutting one down. Obviously this requires a little extra work on the inside of the window if the interior side is visible, but it really works well in compensating for the inevitable "oops's" in the window openings.
cheers
