Deadliest Catch - "Diver’s Refuge" Hotel

"Small hotels like this particular location are very common in the year 2049. Often located at points of high traffic, these businesses offer affordable accommodation for tired fishing trawler workers, treasure hunters or other fortune seekers.

It’s not uncommon to see other businesses like small food shacks or small convenience stores for sailors settle next to these hotels, creating makeshift communities on the high seas."

This was my first bigger structure-focused build I completed in 2023, shortly before starting work on my Avalon trading outpost. I began drafting ideas in early February and finished photography in the middle of March.

"Deadliest Catch" (not the TV show!) is - like "Avalon" - another world created by me to serve as a loose background for my models. It’s somewhat Cyberpunk but also not quite, conveniently set in the same year as the second Blade Runner movie, and centers around maritime life on nuclear seas. Lots of treasure hunters, fishermen, smugglers and the like. I never came up with a proper genre/aesthetic name.

Functioning elevator on the side of the hotel and adjustable vacancy sign

I‘m a big fan of travelling and everything surrounding this - hotels, different means of transportation, train stations, etc. - so this model was a lot of fun to put together. I especially enjoyed adding all the signage and the wooden walkways, piers, and stairs.

Play features in my builds are very important to me, so I included a functioning elevator, fully interior and docking space for two small boats.

Printed and vintage parts are another fun thing I like to use in my models, the printed "Hotel" brick was originally offered only in 1956!
