The reason you have never seen anything is that you need a two dimensional diagram to show the forces in a climbing turn!
Just take a a climb and a turn diagram and there you have it.

Bare in mind that most of these diagrams show increasing thrust to effect climb but you can also climb an aircraft by increasing lift, commony known as the 'zoom' climb.
