I think there were some dwarf colonies/tribes out in the East

Four Fathers of Dwarves were laid to rest in the far east, two of them at the northern end of the Orocarni, and the other two near the southern end of the range. These founded the lines of the Ironfists, Stiffbeards, Blacklocks and Stonefoots. So there were dwarves way out east but they just dont come into the tales of Middle-earth that Tolkien wrote about. Maybe you could make up some tales about those lines/colonies/tribes of dwarves yourself - expand the mythology!

I always think they have an '80's music video look

I certainly can understand your viewpoint that the peoples of Middle-Earth...

I agree that Hun, Magyar and Avar-inspired designs would be most appropriate

I concur with the Gondorian-Byzantine connection.

If you just concentrate on the capital of Minas Tirith, I would agree with you.

I would have loved to see an African dwarf in the hobbit.

In Tolkien's legendarium at least, there were none.
