Hello! I have been playing this game for over a year now and I am now in the market for some acrylic templates.
I would just like some affordable, high-quality options to choose from.
Thank you in advance.
Acrylic Templates
I'm partial to: http://www.appliedperspective.com/acrylic/product-category/x-wing/
Partially because I do a lot of the art design (tho have no financial interest, I just want the tokens and templates to look nice), but also because AP has good prices, amazing customer service and very high quality.

Team covenant does them too
From Litko you want space fighter
Here's where I bought mines. Just got my Scum set, now I just need the ships!
I just picked up my AP Radiant templates, and they sure are pretty. Make sure you airbrush the engraving first though. I tried painting by hand, but found that the edge was peeling off when I removed the protective paper. But the ones I did with the airbrush are flawless.
there is a kickstarter that just started by Greenman designs.
great quality stuff (I use his move templates) and lots of cool stuff planned for stretch goals (BOMBS!)

and you can get the customized.
I'm partial to Applied Perspective too. THey're fantastic products, for a very nice price. Only about the price of a small ship for templates you'll use as long as you play the game.

Applied Perspective all the way: excellent quality, they look absolutely gorgeous (got the silver mirrored ones), and service/communication with Adam is incredible.
Applied Perspective, don't even look anywhere else. Price point is great. I have the mirrored red movement templates, the mirrored silver range 1-2 templates and some friends have the mirrored gold and green. They look amazing and are high quality. My friends range 1 movement template came broke and they replaced it free within a week. Some of the others cheaper ones have cut marks on the templates and whatnot.
Edited by Boba FattWhich of those are Europe-based? Shipping and taxes can easily double the cost if you live on the wrong side of the Ocean!
P.s. I'm in Italy so I'd prefer a European manufacter
I know for certain Cog o two is
applied perspective all the way I've had two orders with him out of his extremely quick at getting back with questionsand theit mirror templates cannot be beat
Try the Acrylic Hotness thread. His look awesome. Shipping is pretty reasonable even to the USA.
Cog o two is from europe and they are really nice templates. I have a rebel, empire and now scum set. Each of these are a very good quality and nice looking. They also sell range 1 and 2 ruler, which can come handy from time to time.

From what I've been told, shipping time is pretty lengthy, though. And no updates or tracking or anything. I've been waiting a couple weeks now, and while I have a package waiting back at my dorm, I can't pick it up until Sunday...argh.
Cog'O'Two
They ship fast and at a great price from the UK.
Much better than trying to order anything from the US these days.
Yank shipping is sooooooo overcosted and SLOW
And the product is **** fine
Litko makes custom templates (I have a set) very nice....but US shipping....gah
I'm partial to Applied Perspesctive as well.
Great products, good cost, and their customer services is fantastic.
I just ordered a couple of sets with rulers from Cog'O'Two.
Shipping to Italy is just less than 5£, and no import duties.
I'm rally looking forward to receiving them, i'll let you know ASAP i get them.
Edited by LouisCypherJust got them, they're really good IMHO.
Fast and cheap shipping, very good quality.
I was looking around for some templates for a few months. The ones I saw were about $20-25 and weren't that exciting. They were monochromatic and maybe mirrored. Meh. I wasn't really excited about throwing out that kind of money for something that wasn't as exciting.
I then saw the Acrylic Hotness thread. His stuff are the same price ($25 USD - which includes shipping) and are AWESOME.

Shipping took me 4 weeks or so. There is no tracking due to national postal services between countries. So, the only way to get a tracking number is to pay a lot more for a shipping company.

I did end up finally getting them. Shipping time to the US was about 4 weeks. it's just the not-knowing-where-it-is part that drives me nuts. Templates are very nice though!
