Modelling a star ceiling

[Anonymous]

I'm looking for the simplest method to model a star ceiling for a room I created. With some randomisation to the size of the small optic lights. What would be the best method to approach this?

Scatter your star shape on a plane, randomize the size and disribution, delete the plane and use your star mesh as a light emitter.

Hi. Take a look at the Object Paint feature. It's a fairly easy and quick way to scatter your object onto a surface.

Did you ever figure out how to execute this? I am wanting to do this starry ceiling in a bar project that I'm working on for my Interior Design class. (and I don't quite understand what the person that relied said)
