Sky Castle...In My Mind


I went looking into castles built by Qabalah Quintus. Just by looking at the various showcase castles that are on display at the sim location. It seems he’s a premiere castle builder in SL. Owners of castles built by him get free upgrades, when new versions come out or modified. Plus owners can exchange their current castle for a bigger one, subject to price adjustment I think, but I’m not sure.


Some notes I took while I did a quick research of the styles of castles Q makes. But you should go on site, and have a look inside these castles. I find them wonderfully constructed, but not the price attached to them. But if your in need of a good castle home, look into Castle Q’s.

Castle Size                             Land Needed                       Rooms

Q1 Tiny                                        512   sqm                             03
Q2 Small                                    1024                                   3-05
Q3 Medium                               1024                                   3-07
Q4 Large                                   2048                                   4-15
Q7 Grand                                  3072                                   4-17
Q9 Snow White (2 Kinds)         4096                                   6-18
Q12 Royal                                4096                                   7-26
Q22 Huge                                 8192                                   5-42

3 Styles of Castles:

Medieval - is duplicating the actual features of the castles built during that era from 1000’s until 1400’s.

Avalon - are fantasy castles for wizards and magical creatures; middle earth comes to my mind.

Gothic - are the dark sinister castles for vampires and creatures of darkness. Dark eerie look, grey walls, and red top roofs come into my mind.

Two kinds of construction, one with standard and support from staff, and the other which is modifiable to your needs, by removing walls and staircases, but no support. These castles are sold with no furniture or walls included in the package. Must purchase them separately.

Following features are for this one castle contain:

Plenty of castles still to see in SL. Not fix on one yet. But any castles with 10 to 12 rooms are my first choice, and will be placed high in the sky. Less lag, and hard to find from probing eyes.
