I prefer counters/tokens that are mainly just faces. They're visually more intuitive to me regarding facing and allow more detail in such a small amount of space. I'm no artist but here are a bunch I made for myself in a retro video-game or retro cartoon style:
PCs:

Monsters:

Those were all drawn pixel by pixel using paint. Again, I'm not an artist. :P
Ive found that some fantasy based CCG’s (aka MTG) have very good, small artwork which can be used in this manner. I may do that again. Of course, you’d better make sure the value isn’t too pricy before hacking them up.
