Tmz<\/span><\/a> : \u00a0\u00a0<\/span> If you’ve seen the previews for “Hangover 2” — you already know Ed Helms wakes up with a Mike Tyson face tattoo … but now, the guy who did Tyson’s ink is PISSED at producers, claiming they ripped off his work without permission.<\/p>\n

The guy who applied Tyson’s face tattoo back in 2003 is S. Victor Whitmill — who claims he not only created the design, but copyrighted it as well.<\/p>\n

In fact, Whitmill says he’s never allowed ANYONE to use the image since he put it on Tyson.<\/p>\n

Now, Whitmill has filed a lawsuit in federal court in St. Louis, claiming Warner Bros. — the studio behind the movie — violated his copyright … and he wants to block the studio from showing the tattoo in the film.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
