Fixing the "black line" problem (One idea)

Hello, i've tried to render MIchael 4 model and i got this black crease lines around his Eyebrow. ( image1)

Then i found that the eyebrow is made of a separate piece of geometry that lies ON the actual geometry of the face (image 2)

And i thought that problem is in the mesh, not in my videocard (By the way i am using GTX660M), or Octane poser plugin.

Next step - I decided to remove the vision for eyebrow in Poser (image3)

The final render. Without this black lines. (image4)

Maybe i am not right, if so - tell me please. Maybe there are some other ways to fix the problem.

Best, Alex.

You are right! :) Another way to solve it (other than inside poser) is to set the eyebrow opacity to 0 in the plugin.

Or set 'rayepsilon' under 'Settings/kernel' to 0.000001
This will also fix forehead "black lines" as well as any other geometry too close to each other.
