I can't comment on the CH-46E kit as I do not have it (yet). Most online builds and a few first hand reviews I heard give it a favorable review. When ever I need paint online, I usually go through Squadron. They carry most brands, and both enamels and acrylics. Great Models Webstore is another one who carries a wide range of finishes. As for which to use, it depends on your tastes. I use both types. I like the acrylics because of the water wash up, but they can be more finicky to apply. When it comes to multi-color camo schemes, I use predominately enamels. Which ever type of paint you choose, practice on a scrap model first to get a feel for mixing ratios, air pressure settings and general control of the airbrush before painting on a model that counts.
HTH,
