Does anyone have any information on the Zuni Basin Tyrannosauroid? I would like to illustrate it but I know almost nothing about it.

It looks similar in many ways (and is probably related) to Dryptosaurus.  Perhaps you could use this genus as a reference, seeing as "Zunityrannus" is still undescribed.

The dinosaur once informally dubbed "Zunityrannus" has since been described as the new genus and species Suskityrannus hazelae by Wolfe et al. (2019). Cladistic analysis of this genus places it as more closely related to tyrannosaurids than to proceratosaurids or stokesosaurids, but less derived than Dryptosaurus.
