I need advice on this DIY project.

I want to stucco the rear of this house and there are some portions around the windows that are wooden and I know they need metal lathe, I need to know what goes above the windows and what goes at the base of the stucco, (weep screed or casing bead) and can I use metal lathe around the wooden parts of the windows and just sandblast or wire brush off the paint on the concrete and put scratch on that or do I need to put metal lathe over the entire thing?

And what should I put at the top of the wall underneath the bricks? Should there be a casing bead there?

Need advice on stuccoing this wall.

I want to stucco this wall and I'm not sure about how to put the metal lathe on, I would just put it on the wooden portions around the window and under the stairs, correct? And then I would sandblast or wire brush off the paint of the concrete and apply the stucco directly to the concrete correct, I don't need the lathe over the concrete?

I'm also curious about what it would look like at the top of the wall where the stucco would end and the bricks would begin, would that have a casing bead screwed into the wall or some kind of metal ridge?.
