Any color can be applied to gizmos. The example below shows the use of a red color.

function OnDrawGizmosSelected () {
    // Draws a 5 meter long red line in front of the object
    Gizmos.color = Color.red;
    var direction : Vector3 = transform.TransformDirection (Vector3.forward) * 5;
    Gizmos.DrawRay (transform.position, direction);
}
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { void OnDrawGizmosSelected() { // Draws a 5 unit long red line in front of the object Gizmos.color = Color.red; Vector3 direction = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward) * 5; Gizmos.DrawRay(transform.position, direction); } }
