Default Is getting a human body to look Na'vi possible?

I was thinking today, about options for becoming similar looking to a Na'vi and what is possible today and what might be in the future.

Skin colour and markings
Theoretically possible through tattoos, but in the future could hopefully be done better, perhaps actually changing the produced colour.

Bioluminescence
At least one person already has UV tattoos of bioluminescent dots in NA'vi style, although actual bioluminescence that works in the dark rather than UV hasn't been done yet, as far as I know. Again, should be possible in the future though, even if glow in the dark rather than actually bioluminescent.

Tail
This is a hard one, not likely to be possible for a while, as it has to have all the muscles and nerve connections necessary for it to move

Ears
Another hard one, I think, as they need to be able to move again, and are also higher on the head than a human's

Eyes
Not sure how hard this would be overall, although I'm guessing that actually making them larger wouldn't be easy.

Nose/face
Should be possible now, I guess, although may not be easy to do.

Queue
One that just looks like one is easy enough, if takes a while to grow, but an actual functional one is unfortunately far off... Maybe one day...

I'd be interested to hear other people's observations on these and any more

I'm also wondering who here would go for looking like a Na'vi if they could. I know I would
