A question about a commissioned suit with iconic imagry

Would creating a fursuit for a customer with markings in tribute to David Bowie be of any legal concern? The most key marking would mimic the image below. The suit would also have red hair and rainbow stripes.

Because it's just his iconic lightning bolt and nothing more, it sounds alright. On a personal level, it would be a bit creepy if the client wanted a fursuit that replicated the entirety of David Bowie.

I've seen fursuits based off of ALIVE people (Gerard Way, Bilbo Baggins from LOTR and someone else from a band I don't listen to). It's a little weird, at least to me, to show your love for a certain person by basing the entirety of a furry costume off them.
