Could you please do tasks for more of the countries from the Horn of Africa? Specifically maybe you could do one for Eritrea?
Hi anon, I meant to reply to this when we took your suggestion and turned it into Task #154: Eritrea but forgot so this answer is a week late but we hope you like it! You may also be interested in checking out, if you don’t already know that we’ve done them, Task #079: Somalia and Task #131: Ethiopia which we had done before you even sent this ask! We’ve also added to finish the Horn of Africa to our suggested/upcoming list! Thank you for your suggestion!
under the cut you’ll find 104 100x100 base icons of somali american model halima aden ( 21 ). they’re free to edit, like/reblog if you use them. do NOT claim as your own. made for @tasksweekly‘s task #079 & task #047.
In celebration of Black History Month, here’s a masterlist below compiled of over 190+ Somali faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever character or whichever project you desire.
Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!
THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!
STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!
STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!
STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)
STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.
THINGS YOU CAN MAKE FOR THIS TASK - examples are linked!

was wondering if you could give us some examples for siblings / half siblings of alisha boe?? thank you so much in advance !!
for half-siblings i found some somali fcs that could work! i could see iman hashi (30), halima aden (22), skore beezy (29), or faysal ahmed (35) working. as for norwegian fcs, i could see tavi gevinson (24), ingrid nilsen (31), herman tommeraas or aaron tveit (36).
for full siblings, i wasn’t able to find any half somali and half white fcs :( but i was able to find some half unspecified black and half white fcs that i think could work which are zendaya (23), paulina singer (29), rebecca naomi jones (39), jacob artist (27), evan ross (31) or jesse williams. i hope this helps you out!
