Wow, hot topic.

My opinion is that the snake's appearance would depend entirely on the specific genetic mechanisms that cause the leucism (all white with pigmented eyes) and hypermelanism (usually all black or all brown due to excess melanin or melanocytes).

The only way to know what it would look like is to make one since we do not know the specific physiological causes of why Ball Morphs look the way they do.
