Can you make butter icing with royal icing sugar?
Royal icing and butter icing are completely different products. Royal icing is made with beaten egg whites (often as dry egg white powder) which break down when in contact with any fat or oil. Butter icing has a very high fat content, so the two types of icing are not compatible. If for some reason no sugar is available to make butter icing, it might be possible to reduce completely dry royal icing to a powder in a blender or food processor, then use that in place of powdered sugar for the butter icing. But that would be a very odd way of getting sugar by way of reverse engineering.

What colors to you add to black to make grey icing?
You would not add any color to black to make grey icing, and once enough black coloring is added to reach a truly black icing, the only way to lighten it to grey would be to mix a tiny bit of the black icing into a great deal of white icing. The proper way to make grey icing is to simply add a very few drops of black to white icing to obtain the desired shade of grey.
