I'm still not sure I know what you mean. Essentially, anything which you deem "underground" would simply be beneath the substrate in the enclosure. The term underground in this sense simply means covered up. So, your polystyrene structure would still be exactly that, not something "underground". As far as ledges, you simply carve and shape the polystyrene to resemble a ledge. My How-To showcases such "ledges".

I believe in the above video they are using thick polystyrene foam insulation board. He then carves it out to make the underground hide. It is just like the 3/4" foamboard insulation only a lot thicker. I wish I new where they got it.

The rigid foam board I got from Homedepot was 2 inches thick and they had thicker. The other thought is you could take the thinner pieces and glue them together before shaping. I did that with a bunch of mine.
