I had a similar experience some time ago at a vacation.
I went to a marked and saw a man that was tattooed on top of his head (where the hair once was). I was so fascinated by his look that I had to talk to him about it. Or maybe to pay him some interest in return for the photos I took of him afterward.
He was clearly proud of his decoration and obviously used to get attention about it. I told him that I was a painter and would like to, maybe, paint his portrait because of this tattoo.
He had no objection toward this project.
But if I ever get sued because of the painting I will point out that it does not represent him, because, as he can see, there would clearly be something wrong with the mouth.
