I'm trying to build black or dark red walls. What type of material should I use? I'd like to use some type of metal.

There's no red metal, but as far as ores go, hematite is a nice red and magnetite is dark gray. Even obsidian isn't actually black in the game.

Sweet thanks for the link. I'm going to try and build a nice looking fortress. Figure blood colored walls would be a nice touch. =)

Most clay is red as well. Also bauxite. You will find loads if you start on a sedimentary layer.

Also, black walls... well, obsidian and slate mostly.
