It would be possible to add ribbon inside color to ChimeraX.  We have a feature request to add ribbon inside color but have not implemented it because of limited resources.

Subject: Re: [chimerax-users] color interior of helix on cartoons?
 
Hi Susanna,
ChimeraX does not have an option to color the inside of ribbon helix differently, sorry.  Ribbons are calculated in a different way in ChimeraX than in Chimera.
Best,
Elaine
