The problem is Zil is a difficult champion to think of a good cohesive skin for. He has a huge clock on his back, which has to be accounted for in the model in a logical way, and all but one of his skills (his Q) are just instant and in most cases barely noticeable and short lived particle effects.

With his Q there are many great ideas you can dream up, but then the issue becomes what are going to make the giant lump on his back and what exactly would you do for the other spells.

I think he just needs a full VGU.

And maybe a Piltovan/clockwork/steampunk skin.

They should make a skin for ekko and zil together. Or make a ekko zil and vice versa

I mean, I agree as a fellow Zil main but blood moon came out 2 years ago and its still quite decent, we can't really say the same for other champs no?

I would like to propose DJ Zil. We can have him do 3 diff transformations like Sona bit to make it different and spicy we can do 3 different eras. the first being something like the 20's where the clock on his back is just a Antique Phonograph (perhaps a steampunk looks to it) with a turn crank that does circles. his 2nd skin\ look can be something modern, and his last can be something future. This will all keep with the time theme.

       For his abilities lets start wit h his Q. For the 20's look he can have a  giant record spins over the targets head (either on is side or flat) and gets faster as it gets closer to the explosion, and when it explodes it shatters. for his modern look they could make his Q be a giant pair of head phones that pulsate and gets faster as it get closed to exploding. and last for his future look i got nothing for atm but open to suggestions. Another thing they can do is when  his q is on an enemy they can here the music he plays.

     I got nothing for his W rewind but open to suggestions as well mm maybe a crow chanting his name or just cheering. 

     For his E you can have his magic runes that float around his target be musical notes. There can even be 2 different sound affects depending on the target being friend or foe. For a friend it can sound like disk scratching that is at a fast rate and picking up, for an enemy the same but the scratching slowing as the effect goes on. 

   For his ult for the 20's he can have the 3 or 4 heads of a Antique Phonograph (the part that touches the disk with the pin to play it) circling the target. For the modern look he could have the he could have all the equalizers buttons\levers (specifically the ones that raise and lower parts of the music) just going up and down like he is adjusting music. For the future look he could have and equalizer that is a future wave equalizer like that of DJ Sona, that she has just around her as she plays.
