Tough call, but with your stats I would suggest around 15-20% (higher rather than lower tho IMO)

Actual bodyfat amount isn't that high, but combined with lowish muscle mass, I'd guess 16% bodyfat.

Integra that's just mean 
Above 15.
Below 30.
Actually after looking at your avatar, well over 20%. You're chest and mis-section looks particularly chubby.

IMO anyone stating sub 20% is way off the mark.

How is it mean when you are virtually agreeing with me?

How? There's not that much fat on him, he's leanish IMO. It's just the low LBM that increases the % of fat a bit more.

The percentage of mass which is bodyfat is very high.

How? There's a bit of fat on the stomach and the rest is lean, 20%+ is for fat people.

I looked at his posed photo, thought around the 20% mark, thought your 30% guess was a little harsh, wrote the first comment, looked at the avatar where it gives a better idea of BF, changed my mind about my initial assesment, agreed with yours, didn't alter my first comment though.
So in summary - mean, harsh, but unfortunately true.

I dont think it is harsh to tell someone that they are carrying an average amount of bodyfat mate.
15-20% is touching on the realms of fantasy.

There is a lot of fat mass in proportion to lean mass, which would result in a moderate bodyfat % of around 25-30.
