A good start. As mentioned the 'Dogs' were 115 ft long and that means 230 pixels.
Anyway wellcome aboard.

awfull. you've put guns on it from different time era's, the props seem to be wrong, and because it is the wrong scale, it is nothing like the real ship.
that said: it is not an bad drawing. it's just not shipbucket, and there are many mistakes.

It pays dividends and a lot of subsequent extra work to check the overall length from at least two separate sources before you start drawing.

Nothing inherently wrong with that. There's plenty of ships around that are seemingly carrying antiquated weapons despite being new builds. This is especially true for patrol boats.
From what I've read, the Fairmile D class were armed with just about anything that could be spared.
