There is the wonderful "Show color surfaces" menu entry in Fiji's
Plugin>Process menu. You can call it after attaching a lookup table (also
known as "color map") to your (8-bit) image.

Beginnings of a documentation are to be found at:

This plugin was written by Mark Longair and uses the 3D Viewer written by
Benjamin Schmid.

So if you find this useful you should cite Mark's and Benjamin's work.

Ciao,
