What is the best technique to do this with?
I found this picture online, and have figured that the technique would be easily adaptable... so how do you do this?

Re: What is the best technique to do this with?
Here's how I'd accomplish it
1. open face image in photo shop
2 new layer and paste hand image on that layer.
3 set top layer to linear burn
4 hue saturation layer and desaturate
5 adjust levels etc of images to get desired effect
6. merge layers and small amount of noise 1-2%
7. merge layers
8 apply high pass filter at a low value and set to overlay (adjust opacity if it is to strong) this will give a slight grundge effect
9. adjust levels and curves as desired

here's a quick attempt sorry for the poor images but I'm dying from a cold and they the best I could find quickly
