Stewmac sells a 12 fret 000 plan, the Antes one. If you end up building from that, beware that most people believe it is overbraced.

When I built an OM 12-string I just used the same bracing and pattern that I used for a regular OM. I braced with 1/4" wide braces and I did make the X-brace a bit higher than 1/2" at the center to start, but by the time I'd carved it it was about the same in the scalloping as a regular OM. I did leave the top thicker, IIRR it was Sitka and came in aroung 0.030" thick. It is about 6 or 8 years old now I think and owned by a guy in Texas and still going strong.

I'm hoping you meant .130" thick.
