    If you're talking about a real globe sitting on your desk then I vaguely remember someone doing that here once but dang if I can find it.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

    Another way to make a globe with your map is to use a combination of Fractal terrains - CC3 - Wilbur.

    I made such a globe with the forgotten realms map i made.

    A globe you say? Casts resurrect thread on my very first post here on the guild: http://www.cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=725
    Chris Wayan is very talented sculptor and artist (if a bit unusual). He has created globes for many of his worlds and painted them. Take a look at:

    Dubia http://www.worlddreambank.org/D/DUBIA.HTM
    Mars Reborn http://www.worlddreambank.org/M/MRZ.HTM
    Venus Unveiled http://www.worlddreambank.org/V/VENUS.HTM
    Shiveria http://www.worlddreambank.org/S/SHIVERIA.HTM
    Seapole http://www.worlddreambank.org/S/SEAPOLE.HTM

    I would ask him for pointers on how to create your own globes, he can be reached at wdreamb@yahoo.com Good luck.
