While the illustration looks very original - because it is based on one -, the tattoo DOES look like he's smiling. I think images change when they are applied to a 3D surface and become more organic, and in this case it is dis-advantageous.

There are other Kus that might work better. An ancient Tiki should look scowling, dangerous or brooding - smiley Tikis are reserved for Tiki pop.
