Thank you! You just gotta go out and experiment. Are you talking about the stars or the light painting? for stars just Take a bunch in raw at different exposure times and ISO's and then look at them in Lightroom. You may think it's garbage, but once you bring up the whites and clarity that will pop your stars and then take down the highlights so it's not too much and pull down the darks in the tone curve to get the black in the sky back and not so milky. You'd be surprised how many stars are actually in your photo. Also download a star tracker app to find the milky way and obviously a dark spot. Aaaaand do a scout of the area in the day for interesting foreground you may want to feature. Once it's dark it's not as easy to roam around for a good shot. haha.
