Tremper albino losing pattern and gaining orange?

My male tremper albino has been losing his pattern a good bit lately and after last night's shed he has a significant increase in tangerine coloring. Does this make him not quite as high quality as an albino? I plan on breeding him so its kinda important to me. I don't mind orange whatsoever, I find it very pretty, but I want to know if this influences his value breeding wise. The first picture is how he's looked in the past few weeks and the other two I took this morning.

I personally believe it makes him a higer quality albino, he could have hypo or tangerine gene, kind of like what needs to be mixed in order to get hybinos or sunglows, if he looses all of his pattering on his body, then, he is a sunglow (a sunglow is a SHTCT albino), for what I can see he won´t loose the spots on his head, if he did he would be a Baldy Sunglow, which is even cooler, how old is he?
 
He was hatched around July or August of 2013. The breeder didn't give me an exact date but he said it was one of those two. So either 5 or 6 months old. And its looking like my females that came from that breeder are doing the sam type thing now (my enigma is getting a darker orange head and a slightly more orange body than before and my radar's stripes are becoming darker) so maybe he played with sunglows a lot lol.

I personally love Albinos with some tangerine.
I hatched a Tremper Albino with some tangerine influence in June last year and I think she looks amazing with the orange. :D
