Default Getting this kind of effect

Im not sure exactly what to call it. It's sort of a dramatic sepia effect?
Can anybody give a tutorial on how to get this effect?

Thanks in advance.

Looks a bit like 300 style.

Look at the way that the different densities blend, especially on the face and the uniform. Am I the only one who sees likely tone mapping to get the main part of the "effect" with heavy sepia (or close to it) tinting to get the overall coloring?
