Very basic tutorial, but it's great ! !
hm about the "Creating this vertex density can be a tedious process."-thing...
I tried a straight subdivied line with an curve modifier and it seems to work.
so
1. Create the curve you want
2. Create a straight line with the same length, the halo material and enough vertexes to look smooth. (You can adjust the length later)
3. add a Curve modifier to the line
4. enjoy the saved hour
I am quite sure it should be even easier with the array modifer and 'fit to curve length'-option, but I didn't got it working
