Hero - Super Saiyan 4 Goku (SSJ4) [Energy Blast]

I had a go at creating part of the 'Energy Blast' scene, where both characters will fire energy blasts at each other and it will meet in the middle in a ball of energy.

I attempted to create this using a simple sphere and extruding faces on it to create the beam coming out of the sphere. I then added a material that I created with low opacity and a blue/white colour so that it looked similar to the original cartoon.

The final outcome is okay, but I want to look at adding the glow effect I learnt at the very start of the module, so next time I post this test I will include that technique and see the differences between the two.
