My 2 cents - you could use one of your own photographs (maybe even the composite) and get a good tattoo artist to do it for you. From what I've seen, nowadays they do amazing reproductions of pretty much anything you come up with.
P.S. From orkut to digg and everything else in between....... boy!! you are all over the place!!!
