Original image
step 1 of 8
Worked on the mask's surface since I wanted to give it a smoother look.
step 2 of 8
Removed the headband (or whatever you want to call it) with lots of clone tool and patience.
step 3 of 8
Distorted the mask to give it a more femenine look and added the black background.
step 4 of 8
Cropped the picture and finished retouching the texture.
step 5 of 8
Turned the image to black and white.
step 6 of 8
The black lines were made with a basic 50% hard brush, all on a layer in Linear Burn mode and about 70% transparency.
step 7 of 8
The colouring was done pretty much like I made the lines, just that this time the layer's transparency was set to 60%.
step 8 of 8
Played with light and shadows until I was satisfied with the result.
Final result
