Good work so far. Those Italian cruisers were distinctive and good-looking ships.

Well done for cutting out the windows. It's the only way to produce a realistic appearance. They can be glazed by applying clear nail polish to the reverse side.

I actually cut all the portholes and windows and then affixed varying thickness clear plastic to the back with superglue (from waste packaging from toys and other things). For portholes I used my die punch in two sizes: larger for the window and smaller for the hole.

For the bridge I found that I also had to paint the back wall black.
