I bought a book called J.R.R. Tolkien Artist & Illustrator and it had some interesting designs in it, but many of them were not really LOTR related.

I thought the Mines of Moria door would be interesting (but big).

Sauron's Eye

One Ring with elvish would be great if you could find a good image somewhere that the Tattoo artist could stencil.

I like the Elvish script idea, but you might have to find someone fluent in Elvish to help you write what you want to write.

Favorite passages from the books or movies might work.

The White Tree

Pick one of many of the LOTR paintings and see if some talented artist could do it for you.

Lots of possibilities, but make sure whatever you get before you get it done.
