The master behind the piece was Instagram user Thomas Tattoos, from Cairo, Egypt, who regularly shares some of this work online.
But while some of this pieces have become a huge hit, the little tot tribute has gone viral - and unfortunately, for all the wrong reasons.
The now-viral clip, which has racked up an astronomical 25.1million views, Thomas films the man's chest, before he proceeds to wipe it clean.
However, as the cleaning solution slowly faded away and the final result was revealed, viewers cried in sheer horror.
Sharing the bizarre inking on his page, Thomas wrote in the caption: ''Portrait, New tattoo, new design.''
In another post, the tattoo artist also put a stencil of the adorable little tot next to the final inking that looked nothing like the child.
Horrified people flooded to comments, where one critic joked and said: ''Man doesn't have clients he has victims.''
Someone else chimed in: ''Do you do vouchers? Someone I really hate has a birthday soon...''
''I don't have an appointment but I still want to cancel,'' a third commented.
''YOU GOT HIDDEN TALENT MAN !! PLEASE KEEP IT HIDDEN,'' another Instagram user begged after seeing the inking which others thought looked like ''a baby demon''.
I got an elephant tattoo - but it looks like a penis
Speaking of bad tattoos, one woman was recently left mortified after she realised her and boyfriend's matching tattoos was a terrible mistake, thanks to a visit to Lidl.
Keen to take the relationship to the next step and showcase their love for one another, Lauren Mullane and her former partner got matching tattoos.
The inking that the young Irish lass placed on her wrist read ''Siempre'' - which in Spanish translates to ''Always''.
Which tattoos hurt the most?
Depending on what part of your body you choose to ink, tattoos can range significantly in terms of pain levels.
Some of the most painful areas are those where the skin tends to be thinner or closer to the bone.
Each area has specific factors which contribute to the level of pain.
Ribcage: Thin skin, little muscle, and many nerve endings.
Feet and ankles: Many bones, tendons, and nerve endings close to the surface.
Hands and fingers: Many bones, tendons, and nerve endings, resulting in increased pain during tattooing. Knuckles can be especially painful.
Spine: Proximity of the spinal cord and nerve endings makes it sensitive. Tattooing directly over the vertebrae can be especially painful.
Knees and elbows: Thin skin and little padding between the skin and the underlying bones.
Armpits and groin: High concentration of nerve endings and lymph nodes.
Neck and throat: Thin and sensitive skin, with many nerve endings and blood vessels close to the surface.

But while the pair may have not thought much about the seemingly innocent tattoo, Lauren was in for the shock of her lifetime after a visit to the local Lid l left her mortified.
Sharing the epic fail on her TikTok page, the blonde beauty revealed how the romantic ''Siempre'' had a very different meaning in the beauty aisle - where a period pad brand was also named Siempre.
To make the matters even worse, it appeared that both the wrist inking and the brand's logo had the exact same font, leaving Lauren horrified.
''POV: You get a matching tattoo with your ex and it turns out to be the Lidl period pad range logo,'' she wrote in the video.
''At least I have a monthly reminder now,'' she joked in the caption.

Wave-riding canines take on surf to be named top dog
They competed against similar-sized dogs for a chance to appear in the finals, while additional heats featured multiple dogs – wearing life vests and often goggles – surfing tandem or riding with people. Once out on the waves, their owners helped them hop on their colourful surf boards as the crowd cheered from the beach. Judges assessed how long the dogs remained on their boards, how long they held their balance, and whether they performed any tricks, like turning around while riding. Coconut catches a wave during the contest at Pacifica State Beach (Eakin Howard/AP) Iza, a five-year-old French bulldog, won the single surfer heat for medium-size dogs for the first time, her owner David Fasoli said. He said he found 'pure joy' during the pandemic when he brought home a surfboard from his job at Costco and taught Iza to balance in the swimming pool. The two soon started swimming in the sea and learning to ride waves as passers-by watched in awe. Now, their competitions are all about defying expectations. 'I have a disability – I only have one hand – so a non-sporting human combined with a non-sporting dog breed, we are kind of phenomenal, defying the odds of what people think we're capable of doing,' Mr Fasoli said after the competition. Carson jumps off his board and into the surf (Eakin Howard/AP) Ten-year-old yellow lab Charlie likes surfing so much he will grab his surfboard and run towards the water – his owners sometimes have to hide it to ensure some peace. Charlie, who has his own Instagram page, entered the extra-large single surfer heat. He also rode tandem with two other dogs in what their humans called 'The Dream Team'. Owner Maria Nieboer said: 'He loves the crowd.' Charlie and Ms Nieboer's husband Jeff prepare for waves together. When Mr Nieboer spots a good one, he turns the board around and tells Charlie to 'get ready'. He pushes the board forward, and Charlie scrunches down and rides the wave as long as he can. Charlie can even steer the board by leaning, and surfs towards an awaiting Ms Nieboer on the shore. Faith the surfing Pitbull gets pushed through the breakers by owner James Wall (Eakin Howard/AP) He does not have to be rewarded with treats for any of it, Mr Nieboer said, adding: 'Charlie does what Charlie wants to do once we're in the water.' Charlie's 'Dream Team' compatriot, fellow yellow lab Rosie, was in four heats. The four-year-old's owner, Steve Drottar, said she is 'stoked' after they go surfing, which they do four to five times a week back home in Santa Cruz. 'It's like, hey, we actually did something today, right? We did something together as a team,' Mr Drottar said. 'The fact that you can do something as a team with your dog creates a different bond than you have when you just take your dog for a walk.' He can tell Rosie feels a sense of accomplishment afterwards because she is extra happy, wags her tail extra hard and snuggles even more than usual, he said. 'It's like we go home on the couch and it feels like she's saying 'Thank-you'.'

BBC Breakfast's Nina Warhurst returns to show after family death as fans rush to support
BBC Breakfast star Nina Warhurst has made her return to the show after a heartbreaking family death BBC Breakfast presenter Nina Warhurst has returned to the programme after her father's passing. The popular morning show was back on air on Sunday (August 3) with Ben Thompson and Nina presenting together once again. It's been a tough period for Nina, who recently revealed that her father had passed away peacefully in a care home on July 2 after a prolonged struggle with dementia. Sharing a touching black-and-white image of her hand clasped with her father's, she penned: "My Dad died on Wednesday night. From Sunday me, my Mum and sisters spent precious time with him around the crying, laughing, sharing memories. On his last day we had nursing home afternoon tea, chippy chips and wine together. "He drifted away gently with me and Amy (Nina's sister) holding him and telling him to 'go head. We'll see you there soon.' And he did. I had my hand on his heart as the ripples softened and stopped.", reports the Express. "A gentle end to a gentle life. So much love and laughter and sunshine across days I'll never forget. He is in my mind all the time now as we adjust to a world without him in it. "I can't quite accept that's real yet. But we think it's really important for anyone going through this to know that the end can be peaceful and beautiful." Supporters immediately flooded Nina with messages of comfort at the time. One viewer commented: "Oh my darling, this is such sad news. He seemed like a beautiful soul." Another said: "So sorry, dear Nina and family. You did him proud. Always." However, a few weeks later and on Sunday, Nina was back on the famous red sofa on BBC Breakfast - and fans were more than chuffed to see her back. On X, one person penned: "Lovely to see Nina this morning." Nina's father Chris, had been diagnosed with mixed dementia, which is Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, in April this year, she spoke candidly about how his condition had affected her life. The mum-of-three penned in an Instagram post: "I don't think I really became a proper grownup until we had to look after my Dad. Because of dementia I lost the home I could go to and still be a child. I lost one of those few pillars of people who I knew would love me, whatever. I thought that support was lost. But now I know that just being with him is enough. I don't know if it's primal, hormonal, chemical, emotional….. but leaning my head on his chest and closing my eyes for a few minutes gives me the sense of safety and love that I've always had and that I still need." BBC Breakfast airs everyday from 6am on BBC One.
