Ohey that looks like something I already made 6 months ago: http://mcache.lifetimeblood.info/

My head appears slightly different because my script also renders the front-head-overlay part of the skin

Nah, it just doesn't look right without the "front-head-overlay" part. I would use it if it had that though.

Added that to the example in the OP.

These things never work for me. My head is a dinosaur.
