How often do you reference real people's faces to design stylized characters?

Never. That I kinda consider more of an issue than a strength because it limit my mental visual gallery a lot, so is not something I recommend. At same time I really don't have as much fun using reference as I do just trying to make things work from memory and that kinda all my motivation as to why I go this route.

Hard to find an example with multiple characters were the issue I'm talking about is more prominent, but I noticed that I always end up doing the same style of nose and all my characters kinda look asian.

This was done with a similar method to OP. Sketch from reference, and sketch again without reference, you can tell how the forms are much more confident.

The reference I use was this punisher cover of him holding a katana if interests someone, I was trying to redline it.
