Re: how was this done?
As a still image or movie? The still could be made in any old drawing app, a movie would probably be made in Maya.

Re: how was this done?
A down and dirty (quick) way in Illustrator would be to -->
- Draw the stars
- Group them
- copy/past in back
- Reduce size
- draw the conecting sections and color them w/the approprate color.
- Alternatley you could use your belend tool.
W/the blend tool tou would probably have better luck spliting the paths on the stars before reducing the size. blending each side to the coresponding size on the smaler star.
Hope that makes sence.

Illustrator CS has the 3D extrude tools so 3D like that has become super easy.

I'd just make a bunch of shaded triangles meeting at one perspective point.

I'd do it in Lightwave 3D.

I'd pay somebody else to do it because I am lazy that way!
