Mercury is a dark grey colour similar to our moon because it has almost no atmosphere. Being so close to the sun has cause it to evaporate and disapear. The colour of a planet mostly depends of the atmosphere gases and elements on the planet. Planets with no atmosphere will have little to no real colour because of this. However, it's thin atmosphere is constantly being replenished.
