I use some small red stones glued to a wood counter with some static grass around it.

I just used casualty figures or those little balck cotton wall balls you get in Hobbycraft.

We went with small washers with a wisp of batting painted brown to show a pin. They look like the near misses you see in the movies.

'Batting', for us Brits, that's nothing to do with cricket, but what we'd call wadding or filler. It's "a layer of insulation used in quilting between a top layer of patchwork and a bottom layer of backing material. Batting is usually made of cotton, polyester, and/or wool." According to Wikipedia anyway. Sounds like a good idea, very visual, ta.
