Try XWE or WinTex. They are pretty straightforward resource editors.

In Doom1.wad (shareware), Doom.wad (DOOM) and Doom2.wad (DOOM II) all
the status bar graphics are lumps named ST*, and the face graphics in
particular are named STF*. With XWE and WinTex you can press the Gfx
button so that the WAD browser will display graphics only, making it
easier to find the face graphics. You'll see there's a button for
sprites as well, but the face isn't really categorized as a sprite (in
DOOM sprites are technically the things you see moving in the levels
or decorating them, as well as the marine's hands and weapons in hand).
