About this dragon, axes and engine star design
Dragons have a long run in fire-service art — a fire-breathing beast that crews have learned to tame. This design layers a lot onto one star: the dragon on top, crossed axes beneath, pine trees and a fire engine at the base. The green-and-brown palette is what makes it unusual; it places the department in forest country rather than downtown.
Order it as shown or customize it: put your department, division and motto in the lettering, redraw the engine as your own apparatus, or recolor the field in red and black for a more traditional look. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Fire and EMS dragon patch questions
Can the fire engine look like our own rig?
Yes. Send a photo of your apparatus and we redraw it in the scene at no art charge; the proof shows it before anything is produced.
Is there too much detail for a small patch?
Below 4 inches we simplify the pine trees and engine slightly on the proof so every element stays clean. You approve the result first.
Can we change the division line and motto?
Yes. The department name, year, division and motto fields all restitch to your wording on the 4-hour mockup.
Can the dragon be recolored?
Yes. A red, black or gold dragon works as well as the palette shown, and you can preview each option in the markup tool.
How do I mark up changes to the dragon star?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle any element, pin numbered notes and choose a colorway. Your marked-up design attaches to the quote.
Want another fire design, or a different starting point?
This dragon star is one of many fire and EMS layouts we build. The fire company patches beyond this dragon-and-crossed-axes star cover crosses, shields and rounds for every station. Comparing embroidered with PVC, or starting from a mascot sketch? The patch ordering guide that prices a green-field dragon star by quantity covers builds, backings and timelines.
