Dear Jacob,
for Fig.3b we defined the plane of the section and filled a copy of it
with the grey colour in Coraldraw (Photoshop can do this as well) then
we superposed the grey pattern of the sliced section on top of the
original section...anyway, this is not the most straight forward way
to do.
Just some days ago I found a very nice and easy script on the Pymol
wiki, which makes exactly this nice sliced image and I would have been
happy if I would have known this script some time ago...
Here is the link (it is not brain intense ;) just follow the script):

At this point, many thanks to the person who posted the script on the
Pymol wiki!!
Cheers,
Susanne

Just came across this figure Fig. 3b) and would like to know what is
the general and easiest way to make things like this, as a "non-
brainer". Thank you, -Jacob
