For PS7

I'll be using THIS image of Jude Law. Resized to about 200 pixels in width.

1) The base image, cropped to focus more on the right side of his face.

2) Create new layer, fill in with #E5DCC6 (Alt + Backspace), set blending mode to Multiply 100%.

3) Texture, set to Multiply 100%, Edit > Transform > Rotate 90° CW

6) Create a new layer, choose color #75B5DB, and using a small round brush fill in the eye, just like below, and set the blending mode to Overlay 70%.

8) Finishing stuff, add text, etc.
Text: Jude - Georgia 14pt #423126
I duplicated one of the overlay B&W layers again to pump it up a little bit.

TA-DA!
