Generate 3d matrix from 3d object?

Hi all... Been working on a concept for an Interior design project. This is a a custom chandelier.
made of strings and crystals. Im looking for ways to generate "3d matrix" (Im not sure if that's the correct term for this) from 3d objects.

I tried to do one object and it looks promising. But honestly, Im still wondering how much work is involved in the actual assembly, or the materials to be used, but that's not my concern at the moment.

I just need to show something in 3d.

Now, to my question. Do we have plugins in SU that could do this job?. This really looks okay if I did not do it manually.. took me hours to do and could be much better.

I think some other 3d softwares could do something similar as shown here (even with half tone effect)

Search this forum for the voxelize plugin. It's also in the PluginStore.
