Here's a few pics I took earlier today (cellphone cam, so the quality leaves much to be desired). Personally I'd estimate 16-18%, but I don't really know too much about these things. Need to work on that posture quite a lot it seems.

Before anyone comments... yes, I have a really terrible cycling tan that can be seen on the backs of my shoulders. That was just 1 hour in the sun a few weeks back. It's actually a lot darker, but the cellphone cam isn't very good with lighting.

I'm currently doing a very slow bulk... actually I'm not putting on any weight at the moment since I've been stuck at the same weight for 3 months now even after increasing my caloric intake twice. At least my weights are still going up so something must be working.

Moved pics to second post to stop the annoying side-scrolling :/

I beleive your over estimating your body fat. I'd say your 16% at MOST if not 14-15%. Pictures are always hard to tell but I could see you getting abs no problem from that build, but I see your actually going to be bulking so disregard my comment :doh:

Thanks; I'm not really too focussed on getting the washboard abs at the moment. If I cut now I'll just end up really skinny so I'd rather put on some bulk first.

You're pretty lean, presumably 15ish percent.
