I've search a bit about the masking effect with some combo's.
i've found out that: (correct me if i'm wrong)
anery a overrides caramel
charcoal overrides anery a
lavender overrides anery a

what happens when a snake is:
homo for charcoal and caramel (guess charcoal overrides caramel??)
homo for caramel and lavender (guess lavender overrides caramel??)
homo for charcoal and lavender ( I have really no clue...)
 
There's some evidence that lavender and anery A in concert do produce a different look than just lavender by itself. Furthermore, there's also some evidence that lavender + anery A + amel seems to result in the expression of anery A and amel and the masking of the lavender gene (last I heard atleast...).

As far as I know though, the statement about charcoal always overriding anery A is true, as well as the Anery A overriding caramel bit.

None of the last three combos have been confirmed both homozygous in a critter. Furthermore, the lavender example suggests that even if one does mask the other, additional genes could change how much the masking occurs, or even which gene does the masking.
