Great, thanks for sharing, I like the generalization very much! why the hexagon shows different type of visual patterns in some sectors more reminiscent of parallel lines, or is it an illusion? And it is so nice you dug up that golden oldie:

Here is a particularly stunning version from that post's comments by @Jari Kirma

With[{size={1920,1200},numbers=100000,r=4/(3 GoldenRatio)},
    Graphics[{White,Table[Disk[RotationTransform[Pi(3-Sqrt[5])n]
       [{Sqrt[n],0}],r/Max[1,PrimeOmega[n]]],{n,numbers}]},
    PlotRange->(r/3) (# {-1,1}/2&/@size),ImagePadding->None,
       ImageSize->size,Background->Black]]
