from my limited use of one of the fathead models (don't recall which one), I found it darker than the 205. the 205 doesn't sound dark but certainly isn't bright either and might be just right for what you're looking for.
the fathead I used sounded quite dark by comparison but also very good and again with ribbons you can actually add highs with eq and get a good sound.
either is prob great. Fathead was used in my case on a retro sounding project and was great. 205 I use all the time for current projects where I don't want a vintage vibe but do want the better qualities of a ribbon and don't want harshness.
