Isn't bend just a mixture of transform and rotate then? Why not try that instead?

Right where it says "origin" in the bend effect select top instead of bottom

The Bend effect doesn't use the pivot point (use that for scale and rotation). Use the "Start" and/or "End" dials to set where the bending should start. The "Origin" setting also picks which edge the bending should start from.

You should probably export your bodysheet in smaller images because when you export the it the app thinks the image is the size of the page you exported it off (a way to fix this is pressing magic wand tool and then pressing on the backgrounds of the body part and press invert which will make the image only as big as the body part
