Wei,
Actually the representations from your example look more like transparent surface and stick representations of the ligand. This can be accomplished a few ways,
but if you want independent coloring schemes for each representation, then you will have to do as Jurgen suggested....creating two objects, one for transparent surface and the other in stick. below are a few links that might help....

Good luck!
Cheers,

Subject: [ccp4bb] How to show the ligands (both as sticks and sphere) as shown here in Pymol
Hi all,
Please see attached Fig where they show the ligand both as sticks and spheres at the same time. Does anyone happen to know how to display the ligand like this? Thank you so much!
Best,
Wei
