Hi,

I hope this is the right place to be posting this, I was hoping someone could explain the reason that my renders with Blender sometimes are covered in black spots like this:



I've had it several times and the only thing I've done to fix it in the past is to re-do a model. I think it has something to do with the number of sides? (the image in question started as a circle and I extruded it around to make the shape, and there's an environmental light if that bears any significance).

Try selecting everything in edit mode and click 'remove doubles'

That was it, thanks :D

@thatshelby you're a pro already

Same thing will happen if you duplicate an object and just leave it exactly on top of the other one.
