I'm looking for detailed personality profiles, my goal is to find which are the main personality traits in people which belong to each one of these classes: extroversion, neuroticism and psychoticism. Do neurotics have some colour preferences? such as Red Black or other?

This is one of those persistent questions that tends to defeat one's efforts to discover answers. If you plan to pursue this, do so with care. Reviewers will tend to be suspicious and critical. Also, any effects will be on the small side, so do a power analysis before settling on sample size.
And remember that people do NOT fall into three "types" (P, E, or N). Rather, we express each of these three traits to varying degrees. So if you want something like a "pure" P individual, that will be someone who not only scores high on a P scale, but also scores very close to average on E and N. This will make assembling a sample even harder. Alternatively, you can use correlational analyses with each trait and the degree of preference for each color. Good luck! It is an interesting topic: that's why people keep trying to come back to it.
