    Any have any idea how this would look as a tattoo

    TBH, I'd say it'd be very hard to get that 'painted' quality that the picture has. Your best bet would be to bring it along to a tattoo artist whose work you like the look of, and ask them for their advice, what they think would be possible with it.

    to do this pic as a tattoo should be not a problem at all. The only thing - i`ll recommend a background. The girls body is kind a pastelli blue and that would be a problem, it will not last for long on human skin.

    How about non human skin ;)

    On a serious note, the colour of the skin wont bother me too much
    as close to the picture as i can get to make it look good.
    im probably looking at a hefty amount to get it done too...

    That pic reminds me of a tattoo I saw in Rob Witczuk's portfolio (snakebite) : http://www.snakebite.ie/Albums/Tattoos/gallery%20robert/rob%20slideshow/robert%20gallery%20page.htm

    that wont bring you directly but its on the 2nd last row of the 2nd page of his gallery. Its of the Mark Ryden painting "rose" http://www.markryden.com/paintings/index.html (Look under "blood"). I'd say it wouldnt work less there was a lot more background in it.
