So lets say the person who owns the copyright over the face granted you permission. The person who owns the copyright to the body could still sue you.

 How can it not be considered art? If a designer uses photoshop to make a design, and a designer uses photoshop to make a chop wouldnt they both be considered art? Take into consideration the fact that for each the designer must use his artistic abilities to make the final product.
Its a very iffy subject if you ask me...
