TATTOOS are nothing new but they are an ever-evolving art.

Now a trend for 3D pieces of body art has added a whole new dimension to the ink works.

Tattoo artists are creating more photo realistic creations than ever before and these photos will have your mind baffled with their convincingly crazy optical illusions.

From the a terrifying bloodshot eye to sinister dolls and open wounds, these freaky designs are almost too real.

There's also an amazing buttoned up tum and a huge claw wound on a leg.

We just can't stop looking at these scarily realistic inkings.
