Navy Gun dimensions

I have been thinking of building a navy type gun for ages and now with the ability to CNC profile in house I have moved a step closer.

I keep ending up looking at low resolution images on Pinterest which are of no practical use to me. So can someone please point me in the general direction of some plans or scaled drawings to work with and at least take a view on if it is a feasible project.
