Changing a scanned image to look like a tattoo???

[firecoral417]

I've searched Google and certain forums endlessly. I have a project at work that requires taking the customer's scanned artwork (which is used for their packaging) and make it look like a tattoo. I'm still waiting to hear from the customer on which style of tattoo they expect this to look like, but I also want to see if this is even possible or if we should just outsource an actual tattoo artist.

I'm the only designer here, and I don't have much of an illustrating background -- just layout. I'm really good with using photoshop to tweak existing things, but I just look at the artwork and am baffled at where to even being trying to do this.

For my client's privacy, I cannot post the actual image. But it is extremely similar in style and detail to the image attached. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I don't know what happened to the attachment, so here is a link:
