Thought it would be really cool and unique to have an albino banshee. Reference was a beautiful python though I can't say I bring any justice to the snake with this picture lol
I still have a lot of practicing to do before I'm really satisfied with my banshee-drawing. ^^ They're so fun once you get the hang of it.

I'm guessing you based it off a retic? The purplish colouration suggests that, most albino snakes don't have that. So that's cool.
Albino snakes are those without melanin, which is the dark brown/black colour pigments. Most snakes - actually pretty much all of them - have more than one colour pigment. Corns have three, melanin, erythrin, and xanthin, so, when the albinos have no dark pigments (melanin) they still have their oranges, reds, and yellows (unlike people, we only have one colour protein so albino people are just white or whatever the colour of our eyes/hair/skin are without colour protein.). Cool, no?
