No offense, but those seem objectively terrible. "She is smiling" doesn't actually differentiate between シ and ツ, nor does the snake/two rocks differentiate them. However, your ぬ one is pretty funny.
If they worked for you, good job, man. I just sat down and learned them the regular way.
I will say, it helped a
lot to have ツ in my name when I was first learning Japanese. It was a very easy way to remember which was which.
