A commonly run into problem when first starting out in Blender is the seemingly spontaneous appearance of black lines after editing an object. Thankfully, there is a quick and painless fix to these problems that’s never failed me.

  1. Enter edit mode and select all(A)
  2. Press Ctrl-N
    recalculate normals

There you go! If that didn’t fix your problem, ask in the comments.
