Giving new meaning to the term "wearable body art", Metal Ink is the first crowd sourcing tattoo graphic t-shirt company.
Metal Ink fosters innovation and provides a platform for tattoo enthusiasts to share their art.
Users submit original tattoo designs online to be voted on by the public, and the best designs are then printed on t-shirts and sold on the Metal Ink website.
Select designs of the one-of-a-kind t-shirts will also be sold at upscale boutique stores under the Metal Ink premium line.
Designers will be compensated for each accepted design, and they will also receive residual payments based on the number of shirts sold.
