The current ASOD show's how one fellow does it. As he's done two sketches, one at low and the other high power, the main brighter stars are plotted, the remainder is 'random' to achieve the overall effect. You can see the variations in this 'random' nature when you compare the two sketches, while he's maintianed the brighter ones.

Another is to plot the brighter ones first, then take 'sections' bounded by the brighter stars and then plot the remainder as finely or randomly as you like.
