Siege Studios Completes Scythes of the Emperor Warhammer Commission

Siege Studios delivered a Redemptor Dreadnought for Scythes of the Emperor on March 13, wrapping their army phase commission for the Warhammer 40k franchise.

The studio announced the completion on social media without disclosing project scope or timeline. Siege Studios specializes in miniature painting and commission work within the tabletop gaming space.

Scythes of the Emperor is a Space Marine chapter within the Warhammer 40k universe, created by Games Workshop. The Redemptor Dreadnought represents one of the faction's larger battlefield units: a heavily armored walker typically standing 6-7 inches tall in miniature form.

Army phase commissions involve painting multiple units to match client specifications. Studios like Siege handle both display-quality single pieces and full playable armies. The Warhammer commission market spans individual collectors, tournament players, and content creators building armies for photography or video content.

Games Workshop reported £473 million in revenue for fiscal 2024. The company's IP extends beyond tabletop games into video games, novels, and licensed merchandise. Third-party painting studios operate independently from Games Workshop, serving collectors who lack time or skill to paint their own miniatures.

Siege Studios did not specify whether this commission involved additional units beyond the Dreadnought or whether the project was for a private collector or commercial client. The studio's portfolio includes work across multiple Warhammer factions and other tabletop game systems.
