    Help How to transform continents into projection???

    Hi! I want to create entire, naturalistic globe, with tectonic plates, climate, etc. I've already drawb a supercontinent, which will breake into several others. However, I have a problem with putting such a map on a planet (I'd like put my planet in Celestia, or some other rendering software). I don't know, how to do it to get naturalistic look, because flat image is difficult to be presented on a globe. Can you help me with that? Or better, could you give me some help with transforming flat pictures of continents into shapes, that would be well peresented on a sphere? I'm esppecially looking for a way for transforming single continent image into shape, that would lay well on a planet, depending on its possition, because during development of my continents, some of them will move from equator closer to one of poles.

    And this is my first map, with future division of continents marked on the supercontinent:
